This record contradicts itself

The votes recorded below don't match the tally the clerk wrote in the description. Both come from the City; neither has been changed here.

  • The description says 7 voted yes; the record lists 8.
  • The description says 1 voted present; the record lists none.

This record may list an older Council

It lists Wu, who appears in fewer than half of the roll calls in the three months before and after it. Records like this seem to reuse a previous Council's roster. The votes are shown as the City published them, but left out of that councillor's voting records here.
