Ugh. I’ll post a roll call shortly:
REUTERS – Senator John Kerry received enough Senate votes on Tuesday to be confirmed as President Barack Obama’s new secretary of state, succeeding Hillary Clinton.
The five-term senator and 2004 unsuccessful presidential candidate had broad support from fellow Democrats and Republicans in the Senate. As voting continued, he had received well over 60 votes in favor of his confirmation, and just two against it.
UPDATE: Not the full roll call vote, but good enough:
John Kerry confirmed as Secretary of State by vote of 94-3-1 (Cruz, Cornyn, Inhofe no votes; 1 Senator voted ‘present’).

FYI, John Kerry was the ‘present’ vote on his nomination to be Secretary of State
