Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the second woman to become a Justice of the United States Supreme Court, died on September 18 of complications from pancreatic cancer. His death led to a partisan battle over the nomination of his successor. President Donald Trump nominated Amy Coney Barrett, who was confirmed by the Senate in October and sworn in eight days before Election Day. | PHOTOS | 2020 in pictures: September | CNN
