good morning. definitely not a slow end of summer sunday. so much news happening. coronavirus deaths in the u.s. just short of 200,000 this morning. the number of cases rising in 19 states, plus washington, d.c. and puerto rico as schools struggle with those outbreaks and quarantines. we're also live on the gulf coast tracking beta, the latest storm to threaten that part of the country. texas looks to be the target here, but exactly when and where, we'll get the latest from rob coming up. but we begin here with ruth bader ginsburg. the political battle now over replacing her on the supreme court and what it means for the presidential campaign. new york governor andrew cuomo ordered state landmarks to be lit in blue in honor of her. "time" magazine releasing a special commemorative cover featuring the late justice, and overnight this vigil where senator elizabeth warren led the crowd in a chant of "i will fight to support ginsburg's stances on dreamers and

affordable care." abc's rachel scott is joining us now from outside the supreme court in washington, d.c. with the very latest. rachel, good morning. >> reporter: whit, good morning. there is a sense of grief and anticipation playing out here in washington. outside the supreme court, a growing memorial as so many grapple with the loss of ruth bader ginsburg. the president, though, is pressing forward announcing he will nominate a woman in the coming days to fill her seat. overnight, hundreds flooding the supreme court to honor ruth bader ginsburg. >> ruth bader ginsburg is one of my heroes. >> reporter: a moment of silence in the shadow of the u.s. capitol where a fierce political battle over her replacement is heating up. less than 45 days out from election day, president trump racing forward urging se republicans to f seat withoould g >> reporter: we've learned senate majority leader mitch mcconnell has already spoken to the president about the next steps, promising his nominee will receive a vote on the senate floor. and the president is now narrowing down his choices

telling his supporters in north carolina he will nominate a woman. >> i will be putting forth the nominee next week. it will be a woman. [ cheers and applause ] >> reporter: sources tell us three female judges are on his short list with conservative judge amy coney barrett emerging as an early front-runner. in 2017 the devout catholic was pressed by democrats about her stance on roe v. wade during her confirmation hearing to serve on the conservative bench. >> the dogma lives loudly within you, and that's of concern. >> it's never appropriate for a judge to impose that judge's personal convictions whether they derive from faith or anywhere else on the law. >> reporter: not every republican is on board with that speedy timeline. one of them, senator susan collins. in a statement she said, i do not believe the senate should vote on the nominee prior to the election. democrats agree.

>> let me be clear that the voters should pick the president and the president should pick the justice for the senate to consider. >> reporter: republicans can only afford to lose three votes, and a small group of moderate and vulnerable senators could split from their party to stop it. >> now we have some senators that, you know, forget it. think of it. i won't say it. i won't say it, susan. i won't say it, susan. >> reporter: a day of mourning quickly turned political. less than 24 hours after ginsburg's death. spotlighting the divide in america. >> i think us being here sends a message not just to honor her, but to really send a message to the gop saying, you know, we are here as people to stand with her. >> reporter: protesters lining the streets outside of mcconnell's home demanding the senate vote be delayed. the vacancy injecting a new sense of urgency into an already chaotic and divisive election year.

republicans will now have to figure out if they have enough votes in the senate to confirm that nominee by election day. but it would have to move at a rapid pace. on average, it takes about 70 days for a nomination to get through the senate, and we are less than 45 days out from election day. eva? >> rachel scott for us there at the supreme court. now to how ginsburg's death may affect the presidential race. a poll last month suggested most people on both sides consider court appointments to be very important, and many people are starting to take advantage of early voting and mail-in ballots. abc's andrew dymburt joins us with more from alexandria, virginia. >> reporter: good morning, eva. even as election officials prep for a surge in mail-in ballots, we are still seeing voters flock to the polls to vote early and vote in person. scores of voters braving long lines and coronavirus concerns t weekend with early voting under way in at least four states. >> we have too much that we're

fighting for to keep our liberties, to keep our safety, and to leave a legacy that's going to be good for our children. >> reporter: some feeling inspired to get out early after the death of iconic supreme court justice ruth bader ginsburg. >> it's sort of, you know, the exclamation point at the end of the sentence rather than the primary reason but definitely a bit of a factor, yeah. >> reporter: with covid-19 still raging in parts of the country, many voters looking to cast their ballots, but skip the in-person crowds. election os are bracing for an unprecedented wave of mail-in ballots and problems have already begun in some parts of the country. >> i was furious that my ballot wasn't counted. >> reporter: in miami beach, a voter's ballot was returned. miami-dade county elections say the error was an anomaly. in new mexico, a major mix-up with absentee ballot request forms leads to more than 14,000 ballots with incorrect names. >> these requests for an absentee ballot were made to our

address with our last name with obviously fictitious first names. >> reporter: a spokesperson for calling it an unfortunate mishap that was caught early. the president continuing his anti-mail-in voting crusade. >> this is going to be the scam of all time. >> reporter: washington's republican secretary of state accusing trump of politicizing the process. >> so to suggest that this is somehow some sort of scam by one or the other political parties is just not valid on its face. >> reporter: and in minnesota, election officials there say they're already shattering records for absentee ballots. so far, the state has already received over 1 million requests. dan? >> andrew dymburt in virginia. thank you. so much to talk about this morning, so let's bring in our chief anchor george stephanopoulos. he'll be hosting "this week" later this morning. good morning, sir. >> good morning. >> you like to think strategically. do you have a sense of which party or which candidate the supreme court vacancy could aid?

>> boy, it's just so hard to know. we're in completely uncharted territory right now. traditionally it hasn't been a huge voting issue at a presidential election. the supreme court has not been decisive, but we've never seen a vacancy this close to an election, clearly in this partisan environment as well. also traditionally, you have had more conservatives who seem energized by the idea of a supreme court pick than progressives, than democrats, but, you know, the early indications coming since the death of justice ginsburg could suggest that that is changing huge contributions, breaking all kinds of records friday night to organizations that are working to elect democratic senators, and democratic house members. >> is there a difference strategically to having the vote before the election, or could there be advantage to holding it after on the republican side? >> i think mitch mcconnell is still trying to figure that out. notice in his statement on friday he said the president's nominee will get a vote. e didn't say when the prid vote. we already have those two republican senators that say the

next president should make the decision, senator collins and senator murkowski of alaska. i think for a lot of the others they don't know yet. if you have the vote before the election, does that take away the issue? does that motivate the democrats more? if it's holding out through the election, does that increase motivation on both sides? but then you face the question of, there's a risk involved in waiting as well. if -- say they hold -- republicans hold it until after the election and joe biden and the democrats win decisively, will they really be able to move a supreme court nominee in a lame duck session after losing on november 3rd? that's a tough one. >> then you also have this potential new senator, a democrat from arizona who could get seated during that. >> if he wins and gets seated. >> this is like five heidi mentional chess, and that's the other question. you referenced senators murkowski and collins saying, let's do it after the election. the republicans need -- if

there are four republican defections, that shuts this whole thing down. we've got two on the books. are there other senators out there on the republican side that could cross over and say, let's not do this? >> hard to know for sure. remember back in 2016 when president obama was trying to nominate merrick garland, almost every republican senator said you have to wait until after the election. they flipped on it, including the chairman of the senate judiciary committee lindsey graham but i think the ones to watch right now are mitt romney who voted to impeach president trump this year, and charles grassley who used to be the chairman of the senate judiciary committee, and he said earlier this summer that if he were still chairman, he would not hold a hearing and he would advise graham not to hold a hearing in october. other possibilities to look at include corey gardner, and others who are up for re-election in his state. it's a state that's unlikely to punish him if he votes for a new nominee before the election. >> so much interesting stuff going on, and you'll be talking about it on your show this morning. do not forget to watch "this week" later this morning. george women go one-on-one with the former president bill clinton to talk about the legacy

of ruth bader ginsburg. plus, exclusive interviews with house speaker nancy pelosi and senator ted cruz on the political battle to fill ginsburg's seat. george, thank you again, really appreciate it. whit, over to you. >> dan, turning now to the pandemic which has killed nearly 200,000 americans. according to a brand-new abc news/ipsos poll, 53% of americans have no confidence in president trump at all in confirm the safety and effectiveness of a potential coronavirus vaccine. that's coming as schools are an ongoing concern. some dealing with new quarantines and outbreaks. abc's trevor ault joins us now with the very latest. trevor, good morning. >> reporter: whit, good morning. you know, it seems unfathomable. today across the country, so many sites are planning to pay tribute to 200,000 american lives lost to this virus, and the country is still trying to chart the best path forward in schools and beyond. this morning, outrage in massachusetts after a student tested positive for covid-19 and their parents sent them to school anyway. >> this one was an egregious

>> reporter: 30 students in close proximity that day all in quarantine. >> this is really frustrating. >> reporter: in utah where the state just reported a new record daily case total, one high school reporting 40 positive cases, 500 students in quarantine. some parents frustrated by the choice to go online only for two weeks. >> why are you sending home healthy kids? they are wearing masks. they're being distanced as they're asked to. >> reporter: the american academy of pediatrics now with new guidance recommending in in part athletes who show symptoms get an electrocardiogram to d hlrtea befod yd edarac arrest in the hospital. >> i was scared. i'm not going to lie. the whole process was scary. it was just -- at first i didn't -- i didn't think i was going to pull through myself.

>> reporter: as the u.s. prepares to pass 200,000 covid deaths, some massive gatherings like missouri's bike fest are continuing unimpeded. 100,000 bikers expected, no masks or helmets required. >> anything going on in the world, it ain't going to stop us riding. vitirevealing during thel star red sox broadcast on friday he had the virus, and it sent his brother to the hospital too. >> man, this is no joke, you know? you don't realize how crazy this is until they hit home. >> reporter: and with so many americans skeptical of vaccines, astrazeneca now releasing a blueprint. some experts say the company has not been forthcoming after two astrazeneca trial participants in britain became seriously ill, eva. >> we are all watching to see what happens on that vaccine. trevor, thank you. now to tropical storm beta almost standing still in the gulf of mexico, but setting its sights on texas. abc's elwyn lopez is in galveston this morning with

more. elwyn, good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning, eva. the storm about 200 miles aywe'ry ng water rising along parts of the texas gulf coast. we've already seen storm surge pushing debris onto roads just east of here, but the worst of it is expected to begin in the next 24 to 36 hours. it is beta's slow pace though that has people taking their time to prepare for this one. officials have gone ahead and issued a voluntary evacuation for low-lying areas including here in galveston, and one of the main concerns is this is going to be a rainmaker for days to come and could see up to 15 inches of rain in coastal areas and 4 feet of storm surge, and it is important to understand, guys, forecasters warn it doesn't take a hurricane to see life-threatening storm surge. >> thank you. let's hone in on the forecast with rob. rob, good morning to you. >> good morning, dan, and welcome to elwyn.

the baptism by fire. she was down with hurricane sally last week. here we go. we're into the greek alphabet, and as she pointed out, it's going to be more of a rainmaker with this one. buts slow moving and always a problem and intensity forecasting is always an issue as well. so we have some question marks with this system which as she mentioned is 200 miles off the coastline there. we have tropical storm warnings, and hurricane watches have been dropped at least for now. north of corpus christi, so the folks who are dealing with the recovery of hurricane laura in lake charles are going to have to deal with beta here in some capacity. making landfall likely monday night as a strong tropical storm, maybe stronger than that, and crossing over to houston. but, again, the rainfall is going to be huge. we'll probably get at least a foot and this persistent wind much like sally will see storm surge. locally 4 feet, and we're already seeing some of that action right now and the rains will be heavy at times through texas city, galveston bay, and even back towards corpus christi. how much rain do we think we'll get?

10 to 15 inches of it right not used to talking about tropical weather in a puffy vest, but that's the kind of chill we have in the air here in new england. we'll talk about hurricane teddy in the next half hour. guys, back to you. >> thank you, rob. we'll appreciate it and talk to you soon. we want to transition to the excitement building for television's biggest night, the emmys. this year, the pandemic has changed everything as we know, and overnight we got a taste of what's to come with creative

arts emmys already awarded. abc's chris connelly joins us from los angeles with more. chris, good morning. >> reporter: hey, good morning, whit. yeah, creative arts emmys wrapping up last night. primetime emmys tonight hoping to use comedy and creativity to navigate the social distancing era. tonight, amid the pandemic it will be a primetime emmys unlike any other. no red carpet outside staples center. no audience inside it and no problem for this year's show with jimmy kimmel as your host. >> how will we pull it off this year? i don't know. >> what is your favorite season? >> awards. >> reporter: from the sweetly comic roses surviving and thriving up the creek, and the ee lipgs-american loved one -- >> a man treated like a woman, but is officially a man. >> reporter: to "the mandalorian's" baby yoda caregiving. >> i don't know what the fuss was all about. >> reporter: and the savage rivalries of the roys

before she was a supreme court justice, ginsburg won a major gender discrimination suit before the supreme court. joining us now is the man she represented, stephen wiesenfeld. stephen, thank you so much for joining us this morning. i want to talk about your case because when we think about ginsburg, we think about her in terms of equal rights for women. but she was a fighter for broader equality for all, and your wife died in childbirth in 1972, and this is what your case was about. you tried to get social security survivor benefits. at the time the law only allowed women to get those benefits if the husband died, not the other way around. you watched ginsburg argue the case before the supreme court. what was that like for you? >> well, it was a very interesting time, and i want to point out that there's a woman's rights element to the case which is actually stronger than one

might think that a surviving widower would receive the benefit because my wife, paula, she had paid money into the social security system for seven years. she was a schoolteacher, paying money into the system. so when she passed away, the benefit that would accrue to a similarly situated male would support his wife, but there was no benefit for a widow -- widower who might have received that benefit had he been a woman instead, and it would show that what ruth ginsburg argued at the supreme court was that the value of the money that paula had earned is worth less than a simirlsituat be h mey went tosuort his family ese cases athe foue t.know my o case included in that. years later though, ginsburg officiated your son's wedding. the two of you kept in touch

through letters over the years. how well did you get to know her, and what was she like in private outside the public eye? >> well, she was a very friendly, very caring person. every time that we got together, there was always a hug and little things of that nature. when i -- she also married my wife, my current wife and me. that's elaine that you see in that picture on the screen, and when i first brought her into her -- brought elaine into ruth's chambers, she walked right up to elaine and gave her a hug and gave her a congratulatory smile that we were getting married. she was always very caring, and we could sit and talk for hours without having to mention anything about the law. just talk about ourselves and ideas that the way things might be working out for the country,

and highly political kinds of things, but without being prejudiced one way or the other whether we be a republican or a democrat. >> stephen, thank you for your time this morning. we appreciate your insight and giving us more of a glimpse into this brief moment in what was an extraordinary life and career in ruth bader ginsburg. stephen, thank you so much again. >> thank you. >> all right. dan? great to hear from him. let's switch it up now and get the forecast from rob marciano standing by in chilly connecticut. rob, good morning once again. >> good morning, dan. the fire situation in the west is still bad but is slowly improving. this is really dramatic video i have to show you out of the bobcat fire. two days ago this fire really blew up. almost doubled in size. now over 93,000 acres and 15% containment. they're dealing with this outside l.a. look at this smokenado or smoke whirl, very much like a dust devil, how a dust devil would form in extreme heat, which a fire will give off. these guys actually drive closer

earlier this year, the death of amber rose isaac, a 26-year-old black woman, ignited outrage after she tragically died during an emergency c-section, days after posting on social media about her experience with what she called incompetent doctors during her pregnancy. >> she was ignored time and time and time again. she's voiced her concerns. >> reporter: in san francisco, the inequalities are even more staggering. black women account for 5% of births, but 23% of infant deaths between 2012 and 2014 were black babies. what do you think weighs into that? >> i think it's so important to recognize that there's a myriad of causes, but at the root of all of those causes frankly is racism, and in san francisco, we have a legacy of both urban renewal and redlining, both of which have significantly impacted black families' ability to partake in the wealth that's being generated right now in the city. >> reporter: with the figures unwavering, calls for change

have grown louder. >> what we're trying to do is giand ot families who have been disproportionately impacted by economic racism the opportunity to have the same kind of family experience as other people. >> reporter: for mayor breed, enough is enough. what do you say to critics who would say, you know, yes, i care about all those things, we should do something to help these disparities, but who question whether cash in hand is the way to go about that? >> i'm tired of debating it. i'm tired of talking about it, it's time to push for action. >> and mayor breed is hoping that this project could become a model for the rest of the country to follow. dr. malawa said it best. she said, we have to try something new if we want to see something different. this is on "turning point," a month-long special event on racial issues facing thecountry on "nightline." eva? >> that's important information to talk about. >> and that "turning point" series, i'll say it again, is really coo

janai will be right back with "pop news." because i can still make my own insulin. and trulicity activates my body to release it like it's supposed to. trulicity is for type 2 diabetes. it's not insulin. and i only need to take it once a week. plus, it lowers the risk of cardiovascular events. trulicity isn't for people with type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. don't take trulicity if you're allergic to it, you or your family have medullary thyroid cancer, or have multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2. stop trulicity and call your doctor right away if you have an allergic reaction, a lump or swelling in your neck, severe stomach pain, changes in vision, or diabetic retinopathy. serious side effects may include pancreatitis. taking trulicity with sulfonylurea or insulin raises low blood sugar risk. side effects include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, belly pain, and decreased appetite, which lead to dehydration and may worsen kidney problems. i have it within me to lower my a1c. ask your doctor about trulicity.
