199 Democrats voted for the civil rights act compared to 163 Republicans. And of course it was signed into law by a Southern Democrat......Democrats passed the civil rights act.

More to the point progressives and moderates alike in both parties passed it....it was conservatives from the south who were against it...universally.....
