U.S-Amy Coney Barrett confirmed to Supreme Court

The US Senate has confirmed Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court in a victory for President Donald Trump a week before the presidential election.

Senate confirmed Barrett to the lifetime appointment on a 52-48 vote, with Democrats unified in opposition.

 

Her confirmation as successor to liberal Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who died last month, creates a 6-3 conservative majority on the high court. One Republican, Susan Collins, voted against the confirmation.
