    "content": "On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise under StandingOrder No.71 to request you to make a determination on whether the vote that was taken in the Committee of the Whole is a vote. This is because while you were going on, a point of order was raised on the implications of a Senator voting for Sen. Sonko. A determination was not made and this has constitutional implications because Standing Order No. 71 is actually drawn directly from the provisions of the Constitution in Article 123. I want to remind you that when Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Snr. passed on, when Sen. Wetangula lost his seat because of the court process and when Sen. Otieno Kajwang passed on, on all the three occasions during the roll call voting, their names were never called out.We are aware that Sen. Sonko has stepped down. We want it to be clear. We would like a determination to be made because we have never had this experience before and under Standing Order No. 1, it is important that you be very clear. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
