Our new state flag! I've been a supporter of the North Star Flag forever, but the commission made a strong choice. 1. 8 point star = Dakota symbology and the state capitol rotunda. 2. Blue on blue = sky blue waters. 3. Star = L'etoile du Nord. 4. Abstract Minnesota shape = cool.

When I introduced legislation to allow counties to vote to live under the laws and taxes of a neighboring State, I researched buying a hundred South Dakota flags to hand out to people. I was bummed to learn that their flag was as boring and indistinguishable as ours, along with

Okay, I’m adjusting to the new Minnesota flag. Yes, I had other choices😉, some views. But this morning I’m embracing it. Big time. All in. Why? Because so many people across the state got involved. That’s civics. That’s MN. And also because I loved this ⬇️, dog and all.

I've seen some people with profile pictures of the new Minnesota flag, but most appear to be incorrectly cropped and pixelated. I made some flag-accurate options, so feel free to download and use! #NewMNFlag

"You can't make everybody happy, but Minnesota will come to be extremely proud of this flag," said Ted Kaye of the North American Vexillological Association (NAVA). "The state has seized a wonderful opportunity to improve its symbolism."

New kit idea for x - Minnesota United FC? It’s nice; their existing style isn’t that far off from the #NewMNFlag. Time to update that star to an eight-pointer, maybe?

Correct. The MN state flag features an eight-pointed star (which isn't found on any national flags in Africa), a (very original!) stylized shape/outline of the state in dark blue, and two different shades of blue - neither of which is the same color as the Somali flag.
