Votes
Recorded motions, movers, seconders, and results across every meeting in the archive.
Archive-wide totals — these cards always describe the entire archive; the member / keyword filters below don't change them. 4,787 unanimous + 335 non-unanimous + 1,335 with no recorded tally + 4 with a recorded tally that is neither a unanimous pass nor a split + 5 on which the minutes' text and the printed ballot disagree about whether a member voted = 6,466 recorded votes. “No recorded tally” are motions whose outcome was captured (e.g. “Passed”) but the numeric split wasn’t — the official roll-call record below fills many of these in.
3 meetings have votes on their recordings only (machine transcript; the City's minutes are not yet available), not in the table below; see the meeting pages: 2026-10-27 City Council, 2026-10-13 City Council, 2026-09-23 City Council.
