Answer
Solution

At the last meeting of the local city council, each member (Mr. Akerman, Ms. Baird, Mr. Chatham, Ms. Duval, and Mr. Etting) had to vote on five motions, number 1 to 5 in the clues below. Can you discover how each one voted on each motion?
Note: a motion may have received zero or one yes vote, even though in real life it's unlikely that both the maker and seconder of the motion would change their minds before the motion came up for a vote. Each member voted either yes or no on each motion; no one abstained from voting on any motion.
