Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California says she will block the nomination of an Idaho judge to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals because she believes the seat should go to someone from California.

I hope she feels the same way about the next US Supreme Court opening.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit is a federal court with appellate jurisdiction over the district courts in the following districts, but according to Feinstein a judge can only come from California. How odd!

District of Alaska
District of Arizona
Central, Eastern, Northern, and Southern Districts of California
District of Hawaii
District of Idaho
District of Montana
District of Nevada
District of Oregon
Eastern and Western Districts of Washington
It also has appellate jurisdiction over the following territorial courts:

District Court of Guam
District Court for the Northern Mariana Islands
The Ninth Circuit is by far the largest of the thirteen courts of appeals, with 28 active judgeships. The court's regular meeting places are Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, and Pasadena, but panels of the court occasionally travel to hear cases in Alaska, Hawaii, and the Pacific territories over which it has jurisdiction. Its headquarters are in San Francisco.

I don't think I want her to pick my Idaho Justice, she doesn't reflect our values! - Thats because we have values.

Since when does a Senator get to choose who serves on federal courts?

What's wrong with putting a conservative on it? Only reason 9th is so liberal is because Carter and Clinton made the most appointments.
