(CNN) Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's death has pulled the High Court once again into the whirlwind of drama of a presidential campaign. Despite the fact that voting has already begun in several states the GOP appears to be moving full steam ahead. Only one Supreme Court vacancy has ever been filled this close to a presidential election -- and that was in 1864. This would also be the first Supreme Court appointment by a president after they had been impeached. Prior to Ginsburg's death, polling showed that voters preferred Biden choose the next Supreme Court Justice.
