So that tells me it may not be as ironclad as George Conway believes it to be.

I haven't identified the appointments of all of the judges, but I believe 4 were appointed by Republicans - which would put two of them siding with the majority.

I'll read it more thoroughly - especially the dissent - but not tonight.
