“Shouldn’t the voters get a say ?”
They did.
They elected a legislature and a governor.
Who would have thought changing state flags and removing statues was on the horizon when ANYONE was elected recently?
Voters cannot forsee the future at those levels.
Not to do that, moron

Except he lied in 2018. Kind of like that GOP Governor of Vermont (Phil Scott) that ran on no new gun laws and then signed a bunch of gun control post-Parkland.
In 2001 they gave Mississippi voters a direct vote on it, and that was the position the current Republican Governor took in 2018, that if it was to change it'd have to be at the ballot box.
This time, absolutely no direct vote allowed, almost like they were scared out of their minds it'd win again.
Mississippi voted a few years ago and 63% of the people voted for the flag the cowardly republican governor and republican legislature threw under the bus because they’re scared of BLM. The governor made a campaign promise that he would protect the flag. He lied and he’ll never be re-elected. The reason? He’s a cowardly liar and betrayed 63% of the people.
