WILMINGTON, MA — On the night her possible successor was introduced, the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was remembered one more time in Wilmington on Saturday.

A candlelight vigil for Justice Ginsburg on the Wilmington Town Common brought emotion and also deep concern from some about Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett.

“To so many of us, this is kind of violating the legacy of RBG and everything she fought for. We’re faced with a very partisan pick who will be on the bench for decades, and will be deciding human rights cases and deciding reproductive rights,” said organizer Siobhan Reidy.
