If a simple majority (51%) votes in favor of impeachment (filing charges), then the case goes to trial in the Senate. No one can be removed from office unless found guilty in a Senate trial.

If two-thirds of the Senators present had voted for conviction (to find him guilty), he would have been removed from office.
