"Kavanaugh has close ties with Former President George W. Bush. In 2000, he was on the legal team that helped to stop the Florida recount and secure Bush the presidency. Three years later, he became White House Staff Secretary. In 2004, he married Ashley Estes, who served as Bushs personal secretary.
Kavanaugh and Bush were close enough that in his memoir, Bush recalled how Kavanaugh convinced him to nominate John Roberts to the Supreme Court in 2005 over two other contenders. A year later, Kavanaugh was confirmed to his D.C. Circuit seat."
