I guess as a wise latina woman she didn't make a better judgement than five SCOTUS judges. Looks like another party-line vote with Kennedy, as he often does, casting the deciding ballot.
Over her ten years on the circuit court, Sotomayor has heard appeals in more than 3,000 cases, and has written about 380 opinions where she was in the majority. The Supreme Court reviewed five of those, reversing three and affirming two – not high numbers for an appellate judge of that many years.
