Almost a done deal, here are the three finalists, they all suck, probably can’t use a 5 point star for religious reasons No, as of 2 days ago the bottom one in your pic was selected as the winner, just like the original post claimed. It says modifications to it may be made this coming Tuesday. https://www3.mnhs.org/serc

They replaced our flag due to it being "offensive" some years back but the only place you ever see the new one is government buildings. Private citizens and many businesses still fly the old one.

The result of strategic immigrant placement the same reason they won’t close the border. Willing to destroy this nation in order to rule it they do what they want we are just tax drones that will pay for it.

The old one shows a settler chasing off a Native American, where would they get that crazy idea. I thought they invited them in for coffee. But it didn't. It showed a settler plowing his field and looking back over his shoulder at an Indian riding away.

Geeze, I was born, raised(somewhat) and lived there off and on and I couldn’t remember exactly what it showed. I was hoping they would show the state fish, mammal, bird, plant if they had to change it.

Osky Not sure what you are even talking about (Nisswa). I would have no intention or desire ever to come fish in MN. Just saying, MN in a good way, but MN has many Gov issues very glad I don't live there but I also don't want the MN people to spread their thinking to their neighboring states. CA people has changed our state also. The only difference is we don't have 7 million people, so fight isn't as bad yet!!!

Snowy you have posted about being in MN before. So be it.
The main point and you did catch a bit of the intent was minding your own store. Many people in Minnesota particularly sportsman are fighting back as best they can against what’s happening in that state. Many ranchers/people in Montana these days find the California influx to be far more detrimental than people from any other state. It’s evident to many outsiders the liberal impact against the outdoor activities in Montana. Those “outsiders” who are closer to or have dealings with the inner workings of Montana see the impact also on the cities and political spectrum.
You have not to my knowledge posted or displayed any efforts you have done to help your own state, yet you bash another. When outsiders could help with auctions to battle for Montana rights, people on this site, and other sites from across the nation stepped up and went big. What have you done?
I could be and maybe am totally wrong about you? If so I’ll be happy to be made a fool of and apologize. Quite frankly if you’re half as vocal for the causes of Montana in Montana as you are in bashing the people of my adopted state Minnesota, I will be shocked. Hence I used the word hypocrisy.

Make your refugees refugees again and your problems would be solved really. MN has been flooded with refugees for the purpose of changing the political balance they are taught to fear one party in order to only vote for the other party. My Hmong “ in-laws” think that the one party would stop even legal immigrations if elected because that’s what they are being told.
This outcome was planned for a long time in the making and the flood of Somalia refugees was part of the plan. People are pawns nothing more to reach a desired goal and nothing more and you’re the paying to make it happen.
80% of the Country want the southern border closed but they refuse to do it the push for power over the health of the Nation is clear.

I thought the flag was fine? I always saw the Indian riding on to the plowed field while the two waved at each other?
It seems to be seen by people in many ways, unless we have a definition from the artist or person who actually contracted to have it done who can say for sure? Why are “they” the ones to be right, why would I be the one who is “right”? By what acceptable measure?
All power and credence these days goes to the magically offended I guess.

I don't see the problem with our current flag. I don't see the hate or racism in it. If some groups feel that way, then why not just remove the Indian from the emblem,.it's not like they don't have their own flags. Red lake Nation has a beautiful flag in my opinion and it recognizes the different clans.
The three finale proposals are equally ugly. They should just leave it alone instead of raising a problem in search of a solution.
But, it is Minnesota, and as many have said here, our political regime is tainted with progressive wokeism. Get away from the metro and Duluth and you will find most feel as many as you do from rural areas.
That is correct. People living in rural MN are opposed to what's happening in the state. The state elections are always determined by the population of the Twin Cities and Duluth. The rural areas of MN voted around 80% republican this last election.
Most in this country have things people in other countries only dream about. Yet, they want America to be more like those other countries.

They all need to get off their butts get out of the city spend time on the road and find out what people in rural small towns think, might open some eyes . That ain't gonna work. Remember, according to the governor, there isn't anything outside the Metro area except rocks and cows.

Mn seems to have a penchant for spending state monies on frivolous things. Do you know we have a state soil? Bird? Flower? Fish? And the list goes on. I do believe that since French is no longer a much used language here getting rid of the inscription on the flag ( that some misinterpreted as the”toilet of the north” ) might give readers a better impression of the state. I didn’t vote on the new design—had better things to do. But a lot of folks with time on their hands did vote. For me, I’d rather spend my time trying to name the new area snow plows. Obiwan Casnobi and Edward Blizzardhands are two of my favorites.

According to the local news this morning, 30% like the new flag, 30% are indifferent, 40% hate the proposed flag. Alex Kendall from channel 9 said she felt the new flag needed the green in it. And I used to like her.

It will never fly over any properties of mine in MN.
Actually that’s probably coming next in MN. If you fly the Nations flag or any other, you must also fly this abomination. Shove it down the peoples throats. I’m also betting it will be immediately required to fly over all public schools. The real flag never was.

I take a little different view on the thing;
The old one was a mural, not a symbol. I am in favor of a simple symbol, as long as it actually depicts something. This thing has its "star of the north", stylized shape of Minnesota, and some stupid unexplained (maybe "land of sky blue waters") blue field.
So, while I can't say I like the new "product", I did sorta like the idea.

Can you elaborate? Twitter won't let me see it. It seems they are in the process of selecting a new state flag. The final selection is a dead ringer for a Somali flag. In response to Natives Americans taking offense to the old flag.....we should have given them a flag depicting a wagon burning instead of the somali version.
