Before KELLY, LUCERO, HARTZ, TYMKOVICH, HOLMES, MATHESON, BACHARACH and PHILLIPS, Circuit Judges.
The Honorable Mary Beck Briscoe and the Honorable Neil M. Gorsuch are recused in this matter and did not participate in the court's en banc review.

Opinion:
ORDER
This matter is before the court on the petitioners' Petition for Rehearing En Banc. We also have a response. Both pleadings were circulated to all the judges of the court who are in regular active service and who are not recused in this proceeding.
Upon consideration, a poll was requested and the votes were evenly divided. Consequently, the poll did not carry and the en banc petition is denied. See Fed. R.App. P. 35(a) (noting a majority may direct en banc review).
Judges Kelly, Hartz, Tymkovich and Phillips would grant the petition, with Judge Hartz writing the attached formal dissent, in which Judges Kelly, Tymkovich and Phillips join.
