I can't find any senate votes in /api/v1/votes.

Did some looking into this today. For some reason the votes API from the General Assembly is only returning House information. We don't seem to be the only ones suffering from this bug. OpenStates seems to only be showing house vote information for some records.

Not sure if that's intentional. Will continue trying to request Senate vote information...

This issue has been resolved.

It seems either the API endpoints from the GGA changed sometime after I started building against them I am a fool. A Branch parameter is now required when requesting votes. Additionally, the Branch parameter must be before the SessionId parameter or else it will be ignored by the remote service.
