[H]ow many new judges has Bush been able to appoint?
The answer is 171. He nominated 175. Three were blocked and one was withdrawn. The three blocked nominations were:
William Pryor - 5th Circuit
Janice Rogers Brown - DC Circuit
Carolyn Kuhl - 9th Circuit
The one withdrawn nomination was:
Miguel Estrada - DC Circuit
