Looks like Thomas and Alito both wrote their own dissents, and Gorsuch joined Alito's dissent. Which means Kavanaugh and Barrett both sided with the majority decision.
Maybe not. I'm not sure, but if a Justice's name isn't on the dissent, doesn't that mean that they just didn't write the opinion, but they still could have voted in line with the dissent? Is there a lawyer here who can weigh in?
Normally, yes, could have been 5-4 decision and fourth Justice just chose not to put name on dissent, but here if four justices wanted to hear they would have, so only the three.
Edited because I forgot about four Justice standard.

Wasn’t the Texas lawsuit a 2-7?
Yep, all of Trump's justices including Gorsuch stabbed him in the back when it mattered most. Not going to give him a pass here.
Kinda not the answer I was looking for. I was asking in the context of what the vote was this time around.
It was functionally 9-0.
