The U.S. Senate has voted to confirm Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. From ABC News:

“The Senate’s vote that confirmed Brett Kavanaugh as the next Supreme Court justice unfolded as expected but that’s not to say it was smooth.

Vice President Mike Pence, who serves as the president of the Senate, had to repeatedly call for the Sargent at arms to restore order in the gallery.

In the end, the vote came down as anticipated, with 50 votes in favor, 48 votes against, and 1 present, effectively confirming Kavanaugh as the next highest court in the land.”
