Adjectival modifier
Hi,
"US networks called the vote in the former House speaker's favour shortly after polls closed at 19:00 local time on Saturday (00:00 GMT Sunday), as exit polls predicted a wide margin of victory for Mr Gingrich." [From the BBC web site.]
Is the prepositional phrase "in the former House speaker's favour" a post-modifier of the noun "the vote" in the sentence?
Thank you.
