Amy Coney Barrett was confirmed to the Supreme Court in a near party-line vote, with 52 votes in favor and 48 against, marking the first time in 151 years a justice was confirmed without minority party support. This confirmation, occurring close to a presidential election, gives the court a solid conservative majority, potentially affecting rulings on key issues like abortion rights, same-sex marriage, and the Affordable Care Act.
