The 2020 US presidential election may end up Supreme Court: Trump

Washington, Sep 24 (UNI) US President Donald Trump said that he thinks the 2020 US presidential election will end up in the Supreme Court, adding that it is important to immediately fill the vacancy left after Justice Ruth Ginsburg's death.
"I think this will end up in the Supreme Court," Trump told reporters. "And I think it's important we have nine justices."
The White House said Trump will announce his pick for a Supreme Court justice on Saturday at 0500 pm EST (0900 pm GMT).The 87-year-old Ginsburg, one of the nine judges on the Supreme Court and a liberal supported by the Democrats, died on September 18 of complications from metastatic pancreatic cancer. Before her passing, the Supreme Court had a 5-4 conservative majority, but some justices like John Roberts have often ruled in agreement with the liberal justices.
