None. The Senate must approve the nomination of a US Supreme Court justice by a simple majority vote (51% of those voting). If the nominee is filibustered, cloture (ending the filibuster) requires a three-fifths, or 60-member, vote. Under the old rules, two-thirds of those present had to vote in favor of ending a filibuster in order to take an up-or-down vote; however, this rule changed in 1975.

Once the filibuster ends, approval still only requires a simple majority vote.
