Trump to Pick Woman as Supreme Court Nominee

Ken Bredemeier

   WASHINGTON - U.S. President Donald Trump appears focused on naming one
   of two conservative female jurists he appointed to federal appellate
   courts to replace Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the
   liberal icon who died last week.

   Trump told a political rally Saturday night in Fayetteville, North
   Carolina that he will make the nomination this week and that "it will
   be a woman." He earlier named Amy Coney Barrett of the Chicago-based
   7th Circuit appellate court and Barbara Lagoa of the Atlanta-based 11th
   Circuit as possible candidates.
