The Maine Senate today, April 1, passed a proposal that will delay a referendum vote to change the state flag until 2026, as opposed to this coming November.
The bill will now go to Governor Janet Mills.
Last year, lawmakers passed a bill that would send to referendum the choice of whether to keep the current flag or switch to the pine tree and blue star flag.
Maine voters might have to wait a couple more years to vote on a new flag design. https://t.co/tXm5cDWm4r
