COVID-19 is changing how we'll vote this year, in what is expected to be the first presidential election where ballots will be cast almost entirely by mail. Misinformation over vote-by-mail continues, and in-person early voting has already begun in multiple states. This all comes in the wake of former Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg's death, which has set off a political race to fill the vacant seat before Election Day. Today on Insight, a look at vote-by-mail and the ramifications of Ginsberg's passing for California.
