Good idea. California is way too arrogant and reducing its size would reduce its reach across the country and across the world. It’d also screw up Governor Brown’s ideas for high speed rail and his plan to siphon most of Northern California’s water to LA with his delta tunnels project.

So, instead of two Senators, California would send twelve to Congress. Eight of those would be Dems, maybe four Pubbies. You like adding four more Rats to work with Obama? Then of course Dem planners would see the smaller geographic bastions to turn and in a few years all twelve would be Dems. You still like this idea?

Of course this whole exercise is bogus. Cannot happen without other State's approval and Cali would never get it.

So, it’s a good idea to give those people 12 senators, rather than 2? That would reduce its reach? No thanks.

This would mean 2 conservative senators and most likely 8 liberals. No thank you.
