And, compare the US election in 2016
By splitting off California there will be millions of Republicans left behind enemy lines.
We need to bring all of California back to the good side.
Anything else is simply shuffling deck chairs.
People from other nations should stay home, if all they plan to do here is work with secessionists or people meddling with our state structures.
Not with the border left open. All that will happen is you will double the number of Dem senators. Drive the central valley. Most of these people are not going to vote GOP.
What about the North “State of Jefferson”?
Would that be 3 states?
If we ever get that Constitutional Convention, #1 Agenda should be make it easier for states to break apart/secede. This way we could isolate the Dems in their urban Hell Holes.
Democrats will never let that happen. And they have the votes to stop it.
I have to say, every time I think we have a chance, I look at who I’m standing in line with on election day and I think, oh crud. Not happening.
Yes! State of Jefferson, baby!
Hey Daily Mail: the two are already "pitted" one against another.
The Eastern side of the Sierras is really nice country, and has comparatively very few libs.
Fine with me, but two things.
Calexit is CA becoming it’s own country.
Why are foreigners involved? Some Russian is a leader on Calexit.
Anyhow, nothing is going to happen.
But what is possible would be CA allocating electoral votes.
Nigel Farage should NOT get involved in breaking up an American state.
The “Calexit” crazies want to make California a separate
country. The guy leading the charge is a Californian who lives in Russia.
Farage is talking about making it two states? These two sides are at odds with one another.
The bulk of the electoral votes would be in “West California”....the coastal areas...if it were two states.
I say keep California intact, just reconstruct them in a political sense.
As much as the left hates the electoral college, they aren’t going to allow 55+ electoral votes to just go away.
Calexit is a pipe dream.
What about the military bases in San Diego County?
Restrict handing welfare and disability out and the state will be full of working people again.
It would be more productive and more doable to break up the 9th Circuit.
Nope, Sir Drake claims California for England on Jun 17, 1579. ...
this is a really bad idea and the brits should not be interfering with US politics like this.
Just break up the 9th Circuit for starters.
Farage should mind his own business.
It would be a mess in California. Geographically it would require a bit of work.
Now Florida could be done easily. Divide it around Orlando.
How did West Virginia secede from Virginia? The government simply did it, probably illegally.
