No, sorry.
At Nicaea the divinity of Christ had never been "put to vote". It had not even been discussed.
The vast majority of Christians were trinitarians before Nicaea. Already in the didachè baptism was in name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, and John 1 (end of 1st century, early 2nd century at the latest) already clearly states the divinity of Christ. Constantine was only interested in ending the turmoils among Christians in his empire, and obviously, at Nicaea, the belief of the vast majority won.
The main theme, at Nicaea, was to compose the differences between the main group of christians, that believed the Son to be of the same substance of the Father, and the Arians, that believed the Son to be of similar substance of that of the Father, but divine indeed.
