That said that legislators in our state are allowed to vote one way on the floor, and then have the records changed to show they voted differently (apparently to not have unpopular votes on record for constituents), as long as the end result of the vote wouldn't change. And that the legislators are upset because the recorder of the votes wants to have the procedure formalized, because that would allow reporters to find out what happened.
Could this be true? Or is it an April Fools joke?
