    They always need to vote again, sometimes a president veto will cause a bill to lose support and reps have an opportunity to change their vote.

    Sometimes though presidents won’t veto if it passes initially at that threshold, depending how embedded they are in their perspective.

        Education in this country is woefully deficient.
