My headline addition is in the parenthesis. Since it passed by about a 4-1 margin, most would interpret that as a 'Its good enough, its time to move on' vote. That would be a win for Sonny, along with the fact that his predecessor's flag went down in flaming defeat.

Actually supporters of the '56 segregation flag should be happy that the idiot Dem started cryin' and stompin' her feet at the end of that legislative session. Now they can keep that ludicrous dream alive that if only they had been given an opportunity to vote, the segregation flag would have been approved. Reality is that it would have been overwhelmingly defeated in a 3 way vote, in fact it might have finished 3rd behind the Barnes flag.

If THIS

is a segregation flag then THIS

by the same reasoning is a slavery flag.

If there was no danger of the 1956 Georgia State Flag receiving more votes than any other in a fair referendum, why were such great pains taken to ensure that the voters were never given that choice?
