Do you mean the 101 because that the number Phantom Planet used in their iconic ode to California, "California"
Conservatives right? So Freedomfornia? Califreedom?
Nothing about this really makes sense, and I'm not sure why they continue to try to divide the state like this.Yeah I know, but still. The whole thing literally makes no practical sense. I suppose it makes 'political' sense if they look at how the counties vote. If ANYTHING Jefferson actually makes sense since the north and south are so different.
Also, I'm pretty sure they haven't considered water distribution at all with this dumb plan of theirs. Good luck with that ya'll.
Yes. That's usually what it is. No matter how many times they say otherwise, it's really hard to buy that they do it for economic reasons when most of them don't have shit to being with.I wonder if rural people just vote republican because they are mostly racist as shit.
Blue colored counties want to be New CaliforniaThe state of New California would incorporate most of the state's rural counties
Oh, and Palo Alto, SF, LA, Anaheim, and Marin.
that's actually a good point i didn't think aboutSomeone should inform them that they can have all the independence that they want, they just have to leave the land.
A whole state made up of nothing but rural counties? Good luck...
I'm offended that the OC and SD are included in this. There are definitely a lot of Trump supporters but we also aren't some of the KKK infested areas near the Sacramento area and some of the ultra rural areas in this supposed "New California".What is the draw to move to New California, it really doesn't have many beaches.
Guess you would still have Orange county and San Diego never mind.
Oh boy, you would Calatonia-ize the situation?
Secession is not something that can be prohibited. It's a social right to stop relations.
Similar to Calatonia, people have a voice, and you cannot, cannot, tell someone they can't secede.
The united states declaration of independence from Britain was illegal and there was no path to american secession from Britain.BTW in all this cases, if you want a real secession you need to follow the law, something that none of the three options seem to do.
Orange and San Diego counties traditionally vote conservative.

If we're going to redraw state lines, we might as well go all in and divide the entire country by population.Honestly California is too big. Probably should be split up. While we're at it might want to combine a few states too.
I mean yes, you've basically explained why this hasn't and never will go anywhere.Hmmm...this line seems to be the key
"without the consent of the legislatures of the states concerned as well as of the Congress"
seems to say they need to convince the rest of California to give them the OK.
now why would Califonia, a liberal state, allow the OK for their conservative side to split off and get EC votes ?
this is going to be strange to watch.
Then you'd have to redraw in a few years as some states naturally shrink as people move out to other states.If we're going to redraw state lines, we might as well go all in and divide the entire country by population.
it could, but they need to get people elected in the Cali State Senate who will push for the billI mean yes, you've basically explained why this hasn't and never will go anywhere.
