Sotomayor Confirmed

The vote to confirm Sonia Sotomayor is happening now. CSPAN predicts a vote of 69-31. That means, I think, that only nine Republicans are voting for her. That’s less than I predicted.

Update [2009-8-6 15:15:32 by BooMan]: The final vote was 68-31, so obviously Sen. Byrd showed up and voted. Congratulations to Judge Sotomayor!!
