0:44Now PlayingRuth Bader Ginsburg, whose 27-year tenure as the second female justice on the U.S. Supreme Court culminated a legal career dedicated to advancing women’s rights has died. She was 87.
Her death comes less than two months before the election gives President Donald Trump a chance to try to shift the already conservative court further to the right.
She died due to complications of metastatic pancreatic cancer and was surrounded by her family at her home in Washington, the court said in a statement Friday. Ginsburg battled with five bouts of cancer.
Trump will now have a chance to fill a third Supreme Court seat. Senate confirmation of his nominee would increase the chances of a decision overturning or severely curtailing the Roe v. Wade abortion-rights ruling. Bridget Bade, Paul Clement, Ted Cruz, and Steven Engel are just a few of the additions the president has made to his list.
