@EU_Commission @NvOndarza Data doesn't suggest this has happened: marginal shortening of time to nomination this time, but only from 55 days to 52. MS split straight down the middle on being faster or slower than 2014

This reflects the late nomination cluster in 2014 (and some very early choices ahead of the vote)
