The title said swiping but I believe should read swapping.
Swiping right is app speak for choosing, as in a dating app.
WELL under a Congressional District’s worth of peeps.
Thank you BT, I learned something!
I think you mean secession.
Areas in Western Maryland have been thinking about seceding or creating a separate state for a while now.
Poor editing. “Succession”. LOL.
Anyway, so sad. Another desperate move by disaffected in the many conservative areas of our state.
This happens again and again. Western MD and Eastern Shore threaten to secede, or in this case, run to join another.
This includes you, right?
Go for it, Maryland!
Maybe, but enough to perhaps keep West Virginia from losing a seat and Maryland from gaining one.
Some counties in western Virginia are probably following this closely.
West, by God, Maryland makes sense to me.
Does she come with the Greater Idaho deal? Conservative states attract all the best gals. None of the liberal woke harpies, shrews or harridans want to join conservative states. We would get all the cowgirls and sharpshooters.
Looking at the map, it seems it would make eminent good sense. But Maryland would probably lose a congressional seat, and they may not like that.
Ping!
Might spread north as well.
I can envision Fulton, Bedford, and Somerset counties considering exiting the Keystone State...maybe even Franklin.
I tried to drill Marcellus shale gas wells there about a dozen years ago. The Annapolis authorities had no idea what to do with an Application to Drill a Well. Blew their tiny minds. No drilling permits were forthcoming.
I’m from Allegany County, born and raised. And the article is correct: Garrett, Allegany, and Washington counties are more like WV. Mountainous, snowy in the winter, lots of forest. By and large, people up there vote Republican. These secession movements pop up like dandelions, but have never gotten anywhere in the past. Given the divisiveness in our society these days, the disgust with the Biden Regime, and constantly being brow beaten from the Woke and COVID Karen crowd, they may just make a little noise this time. Plus, I hear WV has some pretty generous tax laws. I told my wife, I am going to buy three or four acres there and I’m building a log chalet on it. And it wasn’t a threat.
PING to some fellow Maryland Freepers at Post 18.
You’re welcome. I try to keep up with what the kids are up to these days.
