Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg fulfilled her civic duty this week, electing to vote early in the midterm elections.
Ginsburg was spotted handing her ID to poll volunteers on Tuesday, as seen in photos tweeted by Matt McDermott, a senior analyst at New York-based Whitman Insight Strategies.

Ginsburg celebrated her 25th year on the bench earlier this year.
