The United States Senate voted 51-48 Sunday afternoon in favor of moving forward with a vote for the nomination of Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court, effectively ensuring that President Donald Trump will appoint a third justice to the nation’s highest court before the conclusion of his first term in office.
All but two Republicans voted for the cloture motion on Sunday to end debate on the nominee, while no Democrats voted in favor of it. According to Fox News, the vote means that debate over the nominee will be capped at 30 hours, and a final vote can be held on Monday evening.
