This judge was not filibustered. Or if he was it was dropped or cloture was agreed to by voice vote or something, there no recorded cloture vote. He was confirmed 56-41 in 2013.

Collins, Flake, Murkowski voted aye.

Jeff Flake also voted to advance the nomination out of committee. Flake lives up to his name sometimes, generally he has a very good voting record but we see his name here alongside 2 of the worst Republicans. He also shares McCain’s fetish for border hoppers, so he’s quite reviled on FR.

Flake is owned by the Chamber of Commerce, lock, stock, and barrel.
