Even dwellers in the Minnesota Capitol basement, where the statehouse press corps work, have trouble keeping up with lawmakers' plans.

On Thursday, the Minnesota Senate made a plan to take up a vote on a long awaited capital borrowing measure, even though the House usually votes on such bills first.

But then the Senate officials realized their plans to attach the $496 million borrowing measure to a House bill and send it over wouldn't work. So the Senate delayed their vote-plans until Tuesday.

So House officials said they planned to vote on the measure Thursday night. Then, House Speaker Kurt Zellers, R-Maple Grove, said the governor's office raised concerns about the higher education funding in the bill.

"There was a tweak that needed to be made," said Zellers, walking off the House floor after calling off what would have been hours of debate the bonding proposal.

And no bonding vote was had Thursday.
