No the Chair or Head of a Commitee only has a casting vote otherwise it would effectively mean that the Chairman has two votes and therefore an undue influence on any outcome to be voted on.

Committee members vote 4:3 and the Chairman votes 4:4 he will then have a casting vote to 4:5 not Democratic.
