                           EXECUTIVE SESSION

                                 ______
                                 

 NOMINATION OF M. CHRISTINA ARMIJO, OF NEW MEXICO, TO BE UNITED STATES 
             DISTRICT JUDGE FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEW MEXICO

  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Under the previous order, the Senate will go 
into executive session to consider Calendar No. 512, which the clerk 
will report.
  The legislative clerk read the nomination of M. Christina Armijo, of 
New Mexico, to be United States District Judge for the District of New 
Mexico.
  Mr. LEAHY. Mr. President, I urge all Senators to vote for Ms. Armijo.
  I also thank both Senator Domenici and Senator Bingaman for working 
with the committee and with the President to help complete her 
confirmation. In fact, when she is confirmed, we will have confirmed as 
many district judges since July as we confirmed in the entire first 
year of the first Bush administration.
  I thank the Senators for working together. It made our job much 
easier. Both Senators strongly support her.
  I ask for the yeas and nays.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there a sufficient second?
  There is a sufficient second.
  The yeas and nays were ordered.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mr. Nelson of Nebraska). The question is, Will 
the Senate advise and consent to the nomination of M. Christina Armijo, 
of New Mexico, to be United States District Judge for the District of 
New Mexico? On this question, the yeas and nays have been ordered, and 
the clerk will call the roll.
  The assistant legislative clerk called the roll.
  The result was announced--yeas 100, nays 0, as follows:

                      [Rollcall Vote No. 325 Ex.]
