Source: Senate roll call votes, as stored by PORKER ↗

Evidence

What is counted: Senate roll calls in the 119th Congress on the question of confirming a civilian nomination, as recorded on senate.gov. Cloture and procedural votes are not counted.
How it is matched: The vote record names the nomination number; the senator is matched by the Senate member id.
Not voting: Includes absences and any other reason. The record does not say why.

589 of the 617 confirmed civilian nominations show a roll-call vote on their latest-action line; the rest show a voice vote, unanimous consent or another method, with no individual votes. So this is only the roll-call subset. It says nothing about whether any vote was right or wrong.
