There will be a vote on what the flag will be- the old (1956) flag won't be in it, but neither will the flag that preceded it for that matter. The governor did not vote on what flags to put up at the ballot box- the legislature did. All he could do was make an attempt, and he did so.

The people know what they expected regardless of the spin. They expected a vote at the ballot box between the old flag and the new flag. Even the two stage process was acceptable to them. I think they would have voted for the new flag and the second stage would never have happened. I think they would have accepted that.

What we say about it or how we spin it doesn't matter. I think the people of Georgia know what they expected. They expected it to be settled. This will not settle it.
