WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on Friday will enable U.S. President Donald Trump to nominate a third jurist to the Supreme Court and galvanize support among conservative voters ahead of the 2020 presidential election.

Trump earlier this month announced a list of 20 potential contenders he would tap if a vacancy on the nine-justice court emerged.
