revert to the original flag

The State of Minnesota is hosting a competition to redesign its flag.

As of 14 December 2023, they have narrowed the competition down to 3 candidates:

Option 1:

Option 2:

Option 3:

For reference, the original flag looks like this:

Which design will win?

If the contest winner is one of the flags above, this market will resolve to that option.

If the contest winner is a variant of the flags above (based on my judgement), this market resolves to that option.

If Minnesota reverts to their original flag or cancels the contest entirely, this market resolves to "revert to the original flag".

If something else happens, this market resolves N/A.

I will not bet on this market.

Sort by:

option 2:

darker blue → water and the state’s shape

white → snow and winter

green → land, forests, agriculture

lighter blue → lakes and rivers

star → the north star, Minnesota's identity

Good job Minnesota, you now have a real flag.

I'm glad option 1 didn't win, its spacing seems wonky/insufficient.

Yep, resolving to 2

Probably no decision on what version of Option 2 until Tuesday, but here is one variation:

These are all hideous. What a sad state of affairs for Minnesota

Honestly the only good option left. Fingers crossed they go with it
