Amy Coney Barrett front-runner on Trump's list of justice nominees: Sources
A conservative female federal judge appears to be the lead contender on President Donald Trump's list of potential nominees to fill the seat of the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, multiple sources familiar with the thinking of the president and his advisers told ABC News.
Trump is expected to put forth a nominee in the coming days, and while it is still early in the process, U.S. Circuit Judge Amy Coney Barrett is seen as a leading contender, several sources told ABC News. Barrett was one of four finalists in Trump's search for Justice Anthony M. Kennedy's replacement in 2018.
Trump told reporters Saturday evening he will most likely choose a woman.
"If somebody were to ask me now, I would say that a woman would be in first place, yes," Trump said before traveling to North Carolina for a rally. "The choice of a woman, I would say, would certainly be appropriate."
