I wish I could feel as motivated to vote for a change as some others appear to be.
For me there's no compelling reason why it should change, I don't see the flag as a 'brand/logo'. I'm happy to wait until NZ becomes a republic, and the longer that takes, the better – "marry (or in this case divorce?) in haste, repent at leisure" as the saying goes.
If it was a compelling alternative design, I might be motivated.
Don't care what JK, DC etc etc think.
However...having listened to some kids on the radio having a flag debate in class, I feel like maybe it should be more up to them than me, and they voted for change. I think it will be a close result.

You mean the "gamesmen".
They play a game, not a sport.
Good point. We haven't been informed if this is a "binding" referendum yet. Like all the others, a politician can come along and ignore the wishes of the voters.

They rigged the vote paper as much as they could by presenting the new flag on the top! - And how many languages does this country have? ffs!
It should have been the current flag on top and/or the new proposed flag on the bottom - I.E. Question? retain the current flag or replace it with this flag?
I currently don't have strong preference for the old flag or the new one - just do not think it important enough issue to warrant the expense and attention!
Think I will return my paper and vote for the old flag simply as a protest toward their blatant bias and dishonesty! - Cheeky pricks!![]()
Do you know the difference between fact & opinion?
I seriously doubt that anyone will fail to identify the flag they want and just select the first option based on your logic.
Why not: Question? Change to the new flag or not?
I don't see anything dishonest or deceptive about the order of the flags.
