How the Senate voted on cancelling the F-22 funding

The New York Times had good coverage of the vote to remove $1,750,000,000 for the F-22 stealth fighter jet from the Defense Authorization Bill.   Here’s a link to the roll call.    http://politics.nytimes.com/congress/votes/111/senate/1/235

Hawai’i’s Senator’s Inouye and Akaka voted to keep the $1.75 billion in the budget for the exotic fighter jet.   It’s not clear if the F-22’s that were supposed to be stationed in Hawai’i would be affected by the cut.
