yes that's why there are 6 pro Roe and 3 anti. Once Alito is confirmed then the balance shifts a little away from Roe, but it's still a majority 5-4.

This is what freaks the liberals who demand balance (only when it means that a conservative might be added)

Kennedy voted to overturn Roe before he voted to uphold it.

At conference on Casey, Justice Anthony Kennedy originally voted with Thomas, Scalia, White and Rehnquist to uphold all of the Pennsylvania abortion regulations and overturn Roe. However, Kennedy changed his vote at the last minute and joined with fellow justices Sandra Day O'Connor and David Souter to form a plurality that would uphold Roe.
