i can read. but i can also do math. it makes perfect sense that if there are a lot more motions, that the minority party will respond in kind.
Those are not "motions to vote on stuff", those are cloture motions (against filibuster).

Neither chart indicates the number of motions brought to the floor, which is what you are assuming and basing your percentages upon.

(and the charts are not duplicates)

I give up
