RE: "Answer the question! What's the sexual split of the potential Supreme Court candidates?"

I already did. Within the pool, there are a substantial number of female candidates. This isn't the UK where there are no female judges. Our system is surprisingly packed full of them.

RE: "It's not the size of the pool that YOU have issue with, its the difference between the sexual split of the candidates and the split of the court."

You need to reread what I said: "It's statistically out of whack. The pool of candidates is sufficiently large enough."

You asked about the pool of women candidates and that's what the above answers. The pool of FEMALE candidates is very large. Are you that out of touch? This isn't the UK you know.

RE: " Supreme Court justices to weight demographics is one of your platforms"

Yes, but that proves how much I prefer diversity - even if an opinion is against me. Why else do you think I read this thread - the diversity of opinion is interesting.
