Ruth Bader Ginsburg has no need any longer for her "I'm Ruth, Not Sandra" T-shirt. She could, however, use Sandra Day O'Connor's vote. O'Connor's retirement from the Supreme Court last year almost certainly cost Ginsburg's side a victory in April's abortion case, and might have been a factor in last week's wage discrimination ruling, also decided by a 5-4 vote. The two justices were not always on the same side, but they were often together on issues of particular concern to women.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg has no need any longer for her “I’m Ruth, Not Sandra” T-shirt. She could, however, use Sandra Day O’Connor’s vote.
O’Connor retired from the Supreme Court last year, replaced by a man. Her departure almost certainly cost Ginsburg’s side a victory in an abortion case, decided 5-4 in April, and might have been a factor in a wage discrimination lawsuit the Court decided last week, also by a 5-4 vote, against a woman and in favor of her employer.
