Given that a bill's initial passage, referenced in the first sentence of this excerpt, has already been established to require merely a majority of a quorum, it's obvious that the "two thirds" mentioned in the second sentence is two thirds of a quorum not two thirds of the entire membership.

After a few initial passages (corresponding to a "recovery period" if starting with freshly dissected primary tissue), the dissociating, plating, and growing of spheres in bulk culture will become consistent as the process reaches a stable state that reflects a complex equilibrium between cell survival, death, proliferation and differentiation.
Because of its inherent tomographic features, the DNM is capable of dynamic tomographic sampling with high temporal resolution of the left ventricular cavity and the myocardium during the initial passage of an injected bolus through the heart chambers (Fig. 11).
Emergence during the initial passage of a population of tumour cells resistant to NC cells.
Loss during the initial passage of a Class I MHC molecule which prevents dual recognition of the tumour cells by T cells when they are transplanted to a normal host.
Acquisition during the initial passage of a protective surface molecule that interferes with the efferent side of the immune response when the tumour cells are subsequently transplanted to a normal host.
This discrepancy between T-MPCs and BM-MPCs observed in this study is probably in part age-related as it is well documented that BM-MPCs from older donors have a slower proliferation rate at the initial passage up to cell senescence [ 31, 32].
Koch reviewed the "law of increasing virulence," originally enunciated by Casimir Davaine in studies of anthrax, that an initial animal passage could "select" bacteria that were more pathogenic than those in the original tissue source [7].
That changed this week, when Senator Scott Brown, a Massachusetts Republican whose support was vital to the Senate's initial passage of the legislation, objected to the $19 billion bank fee included in the compromise legislation produced by a joint Senate-House conference committee.
Protesters chanting "Shame" as Gov. Perry signs #HB2 #txlege https://t.co/K6XewLYF5o — Kolten Parker (@KoltenParker) 18 Jul 13 State Senator Wendy Davis, a Democrat from Fort Worth whose filibuster of the legislation helped block initial passage of the bill in late June, has used the debate as an opportunity to energize Democrats across the state.
