WASHINGTON - Flags on the U.S. Supreme Court’s front plaza will be flown at half-staff for 30 days in honor of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who died on Friday, the court said, adding that a black drape has been hung over the doors to the courtroom.

Visitors to the Supreme Court have left flowers and signs in tribute of the stalwart liberal and feminist icon, many with young children in tow.

The death of Ginsburg, who was on the Supreme Court since 1993, has upended the November election contests, energizing both Trump’s conservative base and presenting new complications in the battle for control of the U.S. Senate.
