Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden on Saturday called on the Senate to not act on the Supreme Court vacancy until after voters decide on whether to re-elect President Donald Trump or choose Biden as commander-in-chief.

Biden issued a statement just after Trump nominated Amy Coney Barrett, a federal judge, to fill the vacancy that opened up with the recent death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
