A majority of US senators have voted to confirm Donald Trump’s supreme court nominee Amy Coney Barrett. Lawmakers voted along party lines, with Republican Susan Collins of Maine joining united Democrats to vote against Barrett’s confirmation. ‘On this vote, the yays are 52. The nays are 48′, announced US senator Chuck Grassley. ‘The nomination of Amy Coney Barret of Indiana to be an associate justice of the Supreme Court of the United Stated is confirmed’, Grassley said to applause in the Senate. Barrett, 48, will secure 6-to-3 conservative majority on the nation’s highest court.

In This Story: Vote

Voting is a method for a group, such as a meeting or an electorate, in order to make a collective decision or express an opinion usually following discussions, debates or election campaigns. Democracies elect holders of high office by voting. Residents of a place represented by an elected official are called “constituents”, and those constituents who cast a ballot for their chosen candidate are called “voters”. There are different systems for collecting votes, but while many of the systems used in decision-making can also be used as electoral systems, any which cater for proportional representation can only be used in elections.

In smaller organizations, voting can occur in different ways. Formally via ballot to elect others for example within a workplace, to elect members of political associations or to choose roles for others. Informally voting could occur as a spoken agreement or as a verbal gesture like a raised hand or electronically.
