WASHINGTON — The House of Representatives voted down a bill Thursday that would have extended the intelligence community’s warrantless surveillance powers by three weeks. The measure, which needed a two-thirds majority to pass, failed to even get a simple majority, with 198 voting in favor and 218 voting against.  Nineteen Republicans voted against the extension, while seven Democrats and independent Kevin Kiley of California voted for it.
