Marking his second appearance since a hospitalization May 15, Sen. Robert C. Byrd (D-W.Va.) will be on hand Thursday to cast his vote for Judge Sonia Sotomayor to be Supreme Court justice.

Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (D-Nev.) told reporters that Byrd would be there for the formal 3 p.m. vote for Sotomayor, the second time the 91-year-old, the longest-serving senator ever, will cast a vote since being released from an undisclosed hospital in early July.
