Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski said she did not support filling a vacant Supreme Court seat in 2016 and believes the same standard should apply in 2020
WASHINGTON—President Trump prepared to nominate a woman to the Supreme Court this week, as two key Republican senators broke ranks to oppose filling the vacancy before the presidential election despite calls from the GOP to move quickly.
Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg died on Friday of metastatic pancreatic cancer at the age of 87, setting off a scramble to fill her seat. Mr. Trump said Saturday that he would announce his nominee in the coming week. “It will be a woman,” he told the crowd at a rally in North Carolina.
