Well, it depends on which senate you are talking about. You could be talking about the Belgian senate, the New Zealand Senate, the Canadian Senate, the Irish Senate, the Italian Senate, the Dutch Senate, the Polish Senate, the Romanian Senate, the Russian Senate, the Spanish Senate or the French Senate.
(Australia and the United States also have a senate, but who really cares about those silly countries, anyway?)
Assuming you are referring to the U.S. Senate, it depends on who you define as the "leader". The President of the U.S. Senate is the Vice President of the United States. He has no vote, unless the Senate is evenly divided. The Senate is also charged with electing from their own membership a President Pro Tempore, who is the presiding officer of the Senate in the absence of the Vice President. Traditionally this is the most senior (in terms of incumbency) of the majority caucus. The President Pro Tempore can vote at any time.
Both the majority and minority caucuses also elect their own leaders who are unrestricted on when they can vote.
The president of the Senate, who is also the vice president of the United states, can vote only in the case of a tie vote.

A person may vote for the president only if that is what he or she chooses to do. There will be many other offices up for election, Repesentatives, Senators and state officers too. Nothing requires a person to vote on every office or issue in order to have the presidential vote counted.
First is the Vice President, then the Speaker of the House of Representatives. these I'm sure of. I think third in line is the Senate Majority Leader or it may be a person of the senate called the president pro temp?
Many top governmental positions (like Cabinet members and Supreme Court justices) are appointed by the President. However, the Senate must approve these nominations by a 2/3 majority vote. A president may write and enter the USA into a treaty with other nations, but the treaty isn't effective until the Senate approves it with a 2/3 majority vote. If a president is impeached (indicted) by the House of Representatives, the Senate will try the court case (basically acting as a jury). A 2/3 majority vote is required to remove the president from office.

The Vice President of the United States is the President of the U. S. Senate. While the Vice President's main purpose is to be prepared in the event that the unthinkable happens to the President, the U. S. Constitution has provided something for him/her to do in the mean time beside twiddling their thumbs. Not only are they required to preside over the Senate, but in the case a Senate vote ends up tied, which is always a possibility with two Senators per state guaranteeing that the total number of Senators will always be even, they cast the deciding vote.
