How does the Senate differ from the House in voting?

In: US Presidents, US Constitution [Edit categories]

Answer:

The senate has an even number of members and so a tie vote is possible, if this happens, the vice president who is not a member of the senator can vote to break the tie.
The House has an odd number of members and so a tie can not occur if every member votes.
The leader of the House is a member elected by the membership and can vote .
