If 80 senators decide the vote should be anonymous then it could be, right? Normally i don't think that'd be possible but for something AIPAC hold so dear i could see it

A voice vote would provide that anonymity and may be the path the senate goes down since then the official votes aren't counted, but idk if that is paperwork that happens later.
