Ginsburg died Friday from pancreatic cancer, leaving a vacancy on the nine-justice panel that Trump has vowed to fill quickly despite opposition calls to delay the process until after the November election. Some right-wing Christian speakers have described her death as an opportunity to shift the balance on America’s highest court—potentially putting the landmark Roe v. Wade ruling in jeopardy—while attacking her liberal legacy on reproductive rights.
