Totally sucks, San Francisco will rule one third, LA another and San Diego the third
Zero change, more feeders at the trough.
I’m for the state of Jefferson movement as it would actually free the conservative countys from democrap rule.
Been there done that! That’s why when we were looking to escape, why Virginia and North Carolina were mixed as options. Their big cities were out voting the rural areas, just like what we escaped in Mexifornia.
Unfortunately, with the biggest population being in urban areas now, that is more likely to happen in most states.
I sure some would like to rid themselves of the pension debt costly prisons and desert areas. Keep the coasts, built up infrastructure and high revenue areas.
California needs to be split longitudinally. The inland areas are quite conservative.
I don’t want 4 more California Senators.
The states need to repeal 17th Amendment (17A) to protect republic from more uniparty senators.
Consider that repealing 17A will also effectively secede California, and the other states, from corrupt federal government imo. (Are you listening Gov. Brown?)
The 16th Amendment can disappear too.
Mexifornia Norté
Mexifornia Centro
Mexifornia Sur
Bueno. I like it
Doesn’t the rest of the country have a say on whether CA can have 4 more senators?
Why can’t TX have 6, or 8, or 10 senators?
Senators have too much power concentrated in one (hu)man. Get the ratio down to something more like at the level of, say, the mid-20th century. The 5 boroughs of New York City as one “State-sized”unit, with the rest of the state as another. No change in Congressional Districts. Do the same for Chicago, Atlanta, L. A., San Francisco, Boston, DFW, Detroit. Let the people in fly-over country have a say. Dilute the city-dweller influence on the deliberative branch. They already have enough in the budgeteering branch.
It is everywhere. The big cities are filled of givemethats and gullibles who want to feel good about their non-racism. But somehow the country got Trump elected to help. Even with all the voter fraud. It would be nice to even the score a little in CA.
A better idea would be to kick the San Francisco, Sacramento and Los Angeles areas out of the country. If you could add Portland, Seattle, Chicago, Detroit, New York City and all of Massachusetts, Connecticut, Vermont and Rhode Island it would be even better. Give them to Canada or let them be quasi-independent states.
¡grassy ass!
