There are currently 6 vacancies in the 9th Circuit. There are 2 nominations that have been with the Senate since Jan and Feb, and it looks like they are averaging a ~2 month confirmation time so I expect them to be approved soon.
One of those vacancies just took place (3 March). There is another planned vacancy in August, for a total of 7. There are currently 6 Bush appointees, 9 Clinton appointees, and 7 Obama appointees (and one languishing Carter appointee!). Trump would need to replace 11 non-Bush appointees just to break us even, but that does seem likely given current vacancies, and time remaining on his term, provided the Senate stays red. For Ex, one of the vacancies is for O'Scannlain (Reagan), and another is for Pregerson (Carter), so that will only be a pick up of one. Last edited by mit31; 03-14-2018 at 3:55 PM.. |
