Voting is now open to choose a new Illinois state flag. The redesign contest runs through Feb. 14, and Illinoisans can pick from one of the Illinois Flag Commission’s Top 10 new designs, or one of three former flag designs. The Illinois Flag Commission will count the votes and report its findings and recommendations to the Illinois General Assembly by April 1. Members of the General Assembly will then vote on whether to adopt a new flag, return to a previous version of the flag or retain the current flag.
