DownloadBreaking news. Breaking news. In America, there's an election coming. And the top state to watch for results this time is not one of the uncertain swingers. Who knows whatever they'll do, but rather step up here, Maine. You're the girl of this election season with the most wicked difficult decision.
Because bundled in with your vote for that other thing, you've also got to vote. Is it time for something new? A new flag? Because this is really breaking flag news main edition. There's a new design to challenge your old look.
But before you take a look, let's get a look at your current look. Ah, been flying a classic blue bell design. Let's show the class. Just a sec. Okay. Right.
Starting at the top is a North Star dalled up with your motto, a Durgo. True enough. But back to the seal. Sailor on one side, farmer on the other. Both leaning on a shield showing off Maine's magnificent forests with a central pine below which a moose just chilling. Oh, and below that, your name real big Maine. Yeah, that's you. And this has been your flying flag for nigh on a century now.
