Last week, Gov. Laura Kelly of Kansas revealed a new license plate design for the state's motor vehicles. But after nearly a week of bipartisan criticism from constituents and politicians alike, she has yielded to dissent.
Ms. Kelly, a Democrat, announced on Tuesday that the new design, which was black, gold and midnight blue, would be pulled and that the state's voters would help choose the next design.
The design was meant to remedy an issue with the current plates: They are embossed and lose about 50 percent of their reflectivity over five years, making them difficult to read, according to the Kansas Department of Revenue.
