And what will college football look like during the coronavirus pandemic? Jon Wertheim has the story. Plus -- we pay tribute to Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who died Friday at the age of 87. Those stories on this week's "60 Minutes."

You know the ability to vote that maybe couldn't take off work or just for whatever reason couldn't get there to vote on one day out of the year, and so this now provides an opportunity for so many more people to vote, and I think that that is scary to some people and these mail in ballots. Mail in ballots are a disgrace.

It's the centre piece of his federal law suit in pennsylvania,.
