Ah my bad, when I read the vote was 190-0, I assumed that was everyone.

When you think about it, in some ways it's not that unreasonable of an assumption. 300 - 110 (who couldn't get into the building) = 190 (who voted to end martial law)

If you could the votes of those who were actually present, then you could say it was unanimous.

That said, a PPP delegate who was going to vote against probably didn't have a whole lot of incentive to try and get into the building (suggesting the possibility that it might be reasonable to count at least some of the "unable to get in" folks as no votes).
