Since there are 100 Senators, I would think more than the ones listed voted against it or we would oficially have english as our language

The measure, approved by a vote of 63 to 34, directs the government to ''preserve and enhance" the role of English, without altering current laws that require some government documents and services to be provided in other languages. Opponents, however, said it could negate executive orders, regulations, civil service guidances, and other multilingual ordinances not officially sanctioned by acts of Congress.

Only nine Senate Democrats voted for the amendment; one Republican, Senator Pete V. Domenici of New Mexico, voted against it.

I've noticed that Snopes, like Zogby, can be "a bit" biased in their comments. Not saying they were or were not in this case though.
