    On February 8, 2021, the Ninth Circuit DENIED the State of California's petition for en banc rehearing. Those voting to deny were Judges Graber (Clinton), McKeown (Clinton), Wardlaw (Clinton), W. Fletcher (Clinton), Gould (Clinton), Paez (Clinton), Murguia (Obama), Christen (Obama), Hurwitz (Obama) and Miller (Trump). Dissenting were Judges Callahan (G.W. Bush), M. Smith (G.W. Bush), Ikuta (G.W. Bush), Nguyen (Obama), Owens (Obama), Bennett (Trump), R. Nelson (Trump), Bade (Trump), Collins (Trump), Lee (Trump), Bress (Trump), Hunsaker (Trump), Bumatay (Trump), and VanDyke (Trump). There must have been judges who voted to deny who did not go on the record.

    Funny thing, the deciding vote was Judge Eric Miller, a Trump appointee who sided with all but two Democrat appointees and who the Washington Senators refused to blue slip because he was too extreme.
