So I posted that the flag vote was supposed to take place yesterday. That obviously didn’t happen. I texted my friend, who’s a Republican legislator, at 8 PM last night. He left me on read and didn’t respond. At around 10 PM, he called me. He was obviously tired and beyond stressed. He let me know that the “keep” camp is fighting harder than we could ever imagine.
At the end of all this, he still expects the flag to change. My input is this. If you see any of the “keep” camp at a postseason sporting event at State, Ole Miss, or USM, please remind them that it almost didn’t occur because of their actions. If you hear them tout a new business in their district from out of state, remind them that they almost prevented it from happening. And lastly, let’s all remember that it’s the morally right thing to do. Hail State, To the Top, and Hotty Toddy too.
