First Hispanic joins US Supreme Court

SONIA Sotomayor has won Senate confirmation as the first Hispanic justice on the US Supreme Court, in a big victory for President Barack Obama over stiff Republican objections.
By a 68-31 margin today, the appeals court judge, 55, became the third woman to sit on the bench that serves as the final arbiter of the US constitution and is called upon to decide feuds on volatile issues like gun rights and abortion.

Justice Sotomayor, who is of Puerto Rican descent, was not expected to tilt the balance of the court come October, when she will replace the retiring justice David Souter.

She will join Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg as the only other woman currently on the high bench.

The first woman ever to serve as a justice, Sandra Day O'Connor, announced her retirement in 2005.

Support from all of Mr Obama's Democratic allies and a handful of Republicans meant the outcome was never seriously in doubt - though the final days brought harsh debate over issues like race and whether Justice Sotomayor would be fair.
