Vote #51

The following question was presented:

Due to the house move, this is potentially a two week vote question as there's a high likelihood that the site may not be up and running next weekend. And we are also round to a full year of voting. Yes, we've been collecting your thoughts on irrelevancies for a year now. The first question we asked was in relation to Independence Day, so we'll follow up with another question on a similar topic. Our new house has a flag pole - what flag should we fly the week of July Fourth?

Results:

England - St George’s Cross was the clear winner with 67% of the votes selected from the following:

  • US - Stars & Stripes (0%)
  • British - Union Jack (0%)
  • England - St George’s Cross (67%)
  • Pirate - Jolly Roger (33%)

This assumes that we’ll be able to buy the flag in time to put it up.

Why wasn’t the rainbow flag an option, surely that’s a must in San Francisco?

Analysis:

July fourth came and went. As the site was down, I just guessed at what the votes were and I got it wrong. I actually flew the stars and stripes being that it's a special day for America (and the fear that my new neighbors would come round and beat me up if I flew any of the other flags). Unfortunately there weren't any photos taken of my flying the flag so I can't prove it. If anyone's really interested, we're currently flying the California Republic flag which we'll probably fly for longer than the republic existed (a whopping 25 days until it became the State of California). That said, the Bear Flag has been adopted by the State so it's still relevant now.
