DC Super. Ct. judges sit for 15 years. But federal Judge Márquez (a PD) has life appointment. AZ GOP senators blue slipped her.

They might. 7 GOP voted to invoke cloture on Judge Márquez (20 year PD/CJA). https://www.govtrack.us/congress/votes/113-2014/s150 … Tulley? Maybe 5 GOP to win.

The Senate also voted 81-15 in favor of her final confirmation (many republicans voted yea). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosemary_M%C3%A1rquez …
