"Split Senate"
In case you actually see this page... Please stop making the change in List of nominations to the Supreme Court of the United States. The reason four of the nominations are marked with a "Split" Senate is that during that period not only was the Senate evenly divided, but there was no sitting Vice-President to break ties, as Garfield was assassinated. That is why the Senate was "split". Prior to the assassination, the Senate is marked as having Republican control, since the Vice-President held the balance... just as it happens right now.
