Independent senator Lidia Thorpe was suspended from Parliament after she threw pieces of paper at Pauline Hanson after a row over racism erupted.
Labor Senate leader Penny Wong moved the motion to oust Thorpe - with Government, coalition, Senator Hanson, David Pocock and Ralph Babet among those who voted in favour.
Australian correspondent Murray Olds says Thorpe was escorted out - and has refused to back down.
