Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg died a week ago on Friday night at home surrounded by family.
She was 87-years-old.
Republicans control the US Senate and the White House and could nominate and confirm a justice by election day on November 3rd.
Senator Chuck Schumer immediately announced within minutes after news of her death broke that the vacancy “should not be filled until we have a new president.”
