Votes on civilian nominations

237 confirmation roll calls this senator was on the roll for, 119th Congress. A tally of what the record shows, not a score.

Yea 16 (7%)Nay 217 (92%)Not voting 4 (2%)
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.
