Washington Senator Maria Cantwell announced she will vote against Judge Alito's confirmation.
Cantwell voted against Kerry’s attempt to block Alito’s nomination by mounting a quixotic filibuster.
With Cantwell’s announcement there are only five Senators that have not revealed how they will vote tomorrow:
Bayh (D - IN), Dorgan (D - ND), Landrieu (D - LA), Rockefeller (D - WV) and Snowe (R - ME).
All but Bayh voted for the confirmation of Chief Judge Roberts. Judge Alito might still receive sixty votes for confirmation.
California Yankee continues to track Senators' positions on Alito's confirmation here.
