To clarify a bit: I'm reading the answer as describing someone else's vote, not the speaker's. And an accent mark on "votó" is of course not required with capital letters.

neutral  Jaime Oriard: Accents are required for capital letters. See "cámara" in the first sentence.

agree  Billh: yes, and the accents are very very often omitted in practice with capital letters. This concords with the rest of the text.
37 mins
agree  Charles Davis: As Bill says. This must be right. Except that it should be "That was HER vote", because this means that Doctora XXX said this and voted to that effect.
