WASHINGTON The Senate voted Thursday to confirm Wendy Vitter to be a lifetime federal judge, despite outcry from Democrats over her extreme anti-abortion views.

The Senate voted 52 to 45 to give Vitter, 58, a seat on the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana. Every Republican but one, Sen. Susan Collins (Maine), voted for her. Every Democrat present voted against her.

Democratic Sens. Cory Booker (N.J.), Kamala Harris (Calif.) and Kirsten Gillibrand (N.Y.), all currently running for president, did not vote. (The full vote tally is here .)

Vitter, who is general counsel to the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New Orleans and the wife of former Sen. David Vitter (R-La.), drew fierce opposition from Democrats because she is a vocal opponent of abortion rights.

Planned Parenthood says they promote womens health, Vitter said in a 2013 speech in protest of a new Planned Parenthood clinic in New Orleans. It is the saddest of ironies that they kill over 150,000 females a year. The first step in promoting womens health is to let them live.

During her Senate confirmation hearing in April 2018, Vitter repeatedly avoided saying whether she still agrees with that speech. She also didnt disclose this speech to senators in her background materials submitted ahead of her hearing, which is a no-no.
