3. Latest update 3:05
http://community.adn.com/adn/node/132527

3 p.m.: So here's something to consider while we wait for the Legislative Council to vote -- and yes, we're still waiting:

The council needs eight votes to release the investigator's report. Three members of the 14-member council aren't here -- Rep. Ralph Samuels, Rep. John Harris and Rep. John Coghill.

Unless they called in after the meeting started, that means they're automatic "no votes."

So what's going on behind those doors? Do they have enough votes to make the report public?

Sen. John Cowdery isn't here, but phoned in.

Also: Someone is handing out granola bars to reporters. Everyone had a caffeine crash about an hour ago, but they opened a door to a soda machine and we all bought Diet Dr. Peppers.

5. Rep. Ralph Samuels, John Harris and John Coghill are all REPUBS and No Shows...which means...
assuming they dont call in their vote will automatically have a "no vote"...considering we have 5 democrats and 1 confirmed repub with these 3 repubs absent it is looking very likely this thing is going public

10. 9 Repubs and 5 Dems
But most of the Repubs have been voting all along to push this investigation. It is likely they will vote to go public as well.
