Bryan breaks ranks on impeachment vote for videotapes

Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev., voted against the motin to allow use of deposition videotapes and transcripts.

The motion passed 62-38. That means videotaped tesitmony will be allowed from Lewinsky on Saturday.

Both Nevada senators opposed a motion to call Lewinsky to testify live at the impeachment trial. That motion failed by a vote of 70-30. No Democrat supported it.

Bryan also was among 20 Democrats who opposed an earlier motion that would have barred the use of videotapes of depositions. Reid supported that motion, which failed 73-27.
