Elana Kagan to be Next Supreme Court Justice

Friday, August 6, 2010

The Senate has OK'd the nomination for Supreme Court Associate Justice for Elana Kagan on Thursday.
This culminates a few months of investigations and confirmation hearings that took place. In President Barack Obamas short first term so far in office, he has nominated and was successful in getting his nominee to victory for the high court. Saturday is her big day, as she will be sworn in as the newest member of the court. The vote was not overwhelming but substational at least at a vote of 63-37. The two Texas Senators, Republicans Kay Bailey Hutchison and John Cornyn voted against her nomination. Her nomination was very controversial because she never sat on a bench. But her expertise in the law and her beliefs in promoting the law, along with her long history being highly educated helped her to gain the ultimate job she could ever attain as a judge.
