Ohio will join several other states in raising its flags to full staff on Inauguration Day, despite a nationwide mandate to fly flags at half-staff in honor of former President Jimmy Carter, according to Ohio Governor Mike DeWine.

Utah joins a growing number of Republican-led states to raise American flags to full-staff for President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration next week amid a monthlong period of mourning for the death of late Democratic President Jimmy Carter.
