Geez.
Sorry.
I voted for flag # 3 before I read the narrative.
I agree pictures of people are kind of odd for flags, but there were and are figures of individuals on various state flags, as well as were on various colonial flags.
I voted for # 3 because Daniel Morgan is one of my great heroes - and actually, he was born in northwestern New Jersey. But then more intelligent Jersey boys eventually get the heck out of here.
I guess you are a Vexillologist by avocation or trade.
You may have thought that you voted, but the vote counter did not increase, so your vote was rejected.
