New Jersey Governor Chris Christie nominated two more state Supreme Court justices after Democrats who control the Senate rejected his earlier picks.

The nominations of Superior Court Judge David Bauman, a Republican, and Board of Public Utilities President Robert Hanna, an independent, are a “political compromise,” Christie told reporters. Their confirmations would mean a court with three Republican members, two Democrats and two independents, according to the governor’s office.
