To be fair: it's all the Republicans casting the deciding vote. She doesn't have any special powers that makes her vote count more than the rest. The difference is that she's occasionally not-shitty and so she gets a lot of attention as a maybe.

Like: Rick Scott also cast these deciding votes, but everyone already expected that he'd be a shit so he doesn't get any flak for it.

Her vote as a US Senator counts more. That is exactly how representational government works ~~you doof~~ sorry.

In what way, exactly, does her vote as a US senator count more than another US senator's vote?

Feel free to use simple language if you feel I need it.
