Elena Kagan has just been confirmed by the Senate as the 112th justice to the Supreme Court. The vote was 63 yea and 37 nay.

Which senators deflected from their party and voted their conscience?

I doubt that conscience was a leading factor. More like "who had read their local polling and decided to do something symbolic before heading home to face constituents during the summer recess." And I think you mean "defected."
