Illinoisans Can Vote for Their Favorite Finalist Now Through Feb. 14

The public voting period for the Illinois state flag redesign contest has kicked off and will run through February 14th. Illinoisans can choose to vote for one of the Illinois Flag Commission’s Top 10 new designs, or one of three former flag designs, including the current one. Public voting is available at www.ilsos.gov/stateflag. Participating Illinoisans can vote for:

• One of the Illinois Flag Commission’s Top 10 flag designs

• Retaining the existing state flag

• Or reinstating Illinois’ 1918 centennial flag or 1968 sesquicentennial flag.
 
Members of the public can vote for one flag once every 24-hour period. Individuals with multiple favorite submissions may select a different flag each day. Participants are encouraged to review their vote carefully before submitting, as their selection cannot be altered after a vote is cast.
