Chism Strategies poll shows #msflag support below 50 percent

New survey shows declining support for current Mississippi state flag

For the first time on record, support for the current Mississippi state flag polls less than a majority according to a new survey by Chism Strategies.

But those who want to keep the controversial banner still outnumber advocates of a new state flag. This recent polling shows a 16% change in public opinion over the last sixteen years.

Chism Strategies’ survey of voters in mid-September found that 49% of respondents favored the current flag while 41% wanted to retire it, with 10% undecided.
