Point to add: Votes on Biden Cabinet

I have no clue if you guys decide to include this if it is noteworthy enough for his bio, but Hawley is as of now the only Senator who has voted against every single Biden nomination, which can be viewed on the Cabinet of Joe Biden senator votes table. I think if there are inclusions of his blocking of Mayorkas's nomination on the Alejandro Mayorkas page, it could be mentioned here, along with criticism of Hawley, perhaps under a new section in the Political Positions labelled "Joe Biden" or something similar. Again, simply a suggestion. I know this page has been vandalized a lot and you all are trying to root out trolling and bias, I'm not offended if this is not done.

Also, on the paragraphs on his objections to Arizona and Pennsylvania's votes, could the objection votes be listed as 6-93 and 7-92 instead of how they are now? The Senate writes their vote tallies as the Yea-Nay instead of Majority-Minority. Thanks a lot. Negrong502 (talk) 01:04, 9 February 2021 (UTC)

This does sound interesting and noteworthy; could you please provide a source for this? I've also edited how the votes are written per your suggestion. Thanks. AllegedlyHuman (talk) 01:28, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
AllegedlyHuman: Certainly. They are as follows: Haines, Austin, Yellen, Blinken, Buttigieg, Mayorkas, McDonough. This article from Newsweek summarizes it in a more simple form than combing through the Senate votes if you desire to go that route. If you visit Template:Biden confirmations, you can see a visual representation of these sources in the form of the Senate voting table, which sources those Senate links I just gave you.

I've added this info to the article. Thank you to all. AllegedlyHuman (talk) 01:03, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
