The late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was buried beside her husband Tuesday in a private ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery.

Ginsburg had lain in repose at the Supreme Court for two days — an opportunity for the public to mourn her.

She became the first woman to lie in state at the U.S. Capitol. 

The liberal icon's death has triggered a Republican race to fill her seat before election day.
