Confirmation of Obama's judicial nominations.
The Senate confirmed substantial minorities of those two-year totals by mid-September of the seventh year. The six 2015 confirmations from January to mid September 2015 compare poorly to the 23 at the same point in 1987, to the 17 in 1999, and to the 29 in 2007.
This is truly good news as it means fewer activist judges sitting on the federal bench.
