ABA Ratings of Judicial Nominees
Not that they mean much any more, but here are the ABA ratings of all pending judicial nominees:
RATINGS OF ARTICLE III JUDICIAL NOMINEES
109TH CONGRESS
Last Updated: 4/25/2005
Key to ABA Rating
WQ = Well Qualified; Q = Qualified; NQ = Not Qualified; sm = substantial majority; m = majority; min = minority. Unanimous committee ratings appear as a single rating. In other situations, the rating from the majority or substantial majority (constituting ten to thirteen votes) of the committee is recorded first, followed by the rating or ratings of a minority of the committee. The majority rating is the rating of the committee.
