A function to transform text into units of voteinfo

Usage

votedf(pattern, txtvector, strlength = 200)

Arguments

pattern	Regex pattern to split the text file on
txtvector	Vector of text to make into a data frame. Should be stored by the mend.text function.
strlength	Integer indicating how much of the string after each vote should be kept. With rollcalls it is seldom enough with under 1000
