The Senate voted 60-39 today — just enough votes for cloture against a threatened Republican filibuster — to attach the hate crimes bill to the Defense Authorization bill, expanding current hate crimes protections to include sexual orientation.

All 51 Democratic Senators voted for the bill, along with nine Republicans: John Warner (VA), Richard Lugar (IN), Susan Collins (ME), Olympia Snowe (ME), George Voinovich (OH), Arlen Specter (PA), Norm Coleman (MN), Judd Gregg (NH), and Gordon Smith (OR).

And among the 39 Republicans who voted No were David Vitter of Louisiana, plus Idaho's Larry Craig. And finally, John McCain missed the vote.

Late Update: This post accidentally said that 48 Republicans voted no. Rather, 48 total Republicans voted, with John McCain absent and nine more voting with the Dems.
