[Bug] Votes scraper not pulling in most recent vote, until I cleared cache #261

Hi!

I had an up-to-date cache of 116th congress 2020 session votes as of Sunday June 7. 2020. ran ./run votes --congress=116 --session=2020 this morning (Tuesday June 9) and it was missing a senate vote on June 8th. The vote was present in the xml file when I called the script.

Once I cleared the votes cache, it pulled correctly. If this is a bug, I'll go ahead and try to fix this. Thanks!

I haven't had a problem. It could be a bug, but it might have just been some sort of fluke.

I just experienced the same issue for the current congress and year (117, 2022)
