stake. >> the power is going to shift. it's just enormous. you can't overstate the importance of the change. >> reporter: right now it stands with no liberal or conservative majority, leaving a strong likelihood the justices will split four to four. some of the big cases, states' rights to restrict abortion, affirmative action, president obama's plan to defer deportation for undocumented immigrants, and the california's teachers association right to force all teachers to pay dues. in a 4-4 vote, the opinion of the federal appeals court stands. >> there are very important cases that need to be heard that are not going to be determined if we do not have a ninth member of the supreme court. >> president obama says he will nominate a third justice to the high court but republicans are promising to filibuster anybody he names. >> we should not allow a lame duck president to essentially capture the supreme court in the

waning months of his presidency. >> reporter: an issue that's quickly becoming front and center in the presidential race. >> all of us democrats, we have a responsibility to make sure a republican doesn't win in november and rip away all the progress we've made together. >> reporter: conservatives are mourning the loss of their long held majority. >> by and large it's been what one would call supportive of criminal justice and law enforcement. >> reporter: san mateo county district attorney steve wagstaff spoke on kpix 5 sunday morning about upcoming cases the court may see involving the death penalty and victims' rights. >> who's on the bench will be crucial in deciding which way it goes. >> reporter: the president hasn't given a timeline on his next nominee but we can expect an awkward dynamic when he does. >> i assume he'll appoint somebody who under normal circumstances would be broadly acceptable but he'll allow the republicans to kick the person around for a while. >> reporter: anne makovec, kpix 5. >> by the way, the supreme court is usually in session until late
