    No, there would have to an override vote that was successful. Otherwise, the veto kills it.

    They have to override with a 2/3 majority vote from both houses.

    We got a recorded vote in both chambers. That means that we know who is with us and who isn't. We had some surprises like Bob Brooks who voted against it. Also, we forced the Governor to veto it so we can transfer the blame to Josh Shapiro. Gun rights will now be a defining issue in the 2022 election. We also have a short list of those to primary should there be a challenger.

    It also removes the excuse down the line that "we don't have enough votes to pass it." We have a bill that already made it through both chambers and assuming the makeup is similar, we can hold their feet to the fire.

    OMG you really still believe in that crap. They are playing a game. They always have. It only passed because it would be vetoed with no chance of an override.
