CA will never be taken seriously again as long as Republican Presidential Candidates realize that money spent there is wasted as the state will go Democrat anyway.
CA, the largest state in the Union has marginalized themselves anyway (The politicians there have) this measure would put CA back unto the National Stage as important.
That is a fact!
To most of the country, it doesn’t matter what happens to, or in, NY and CA.
They have regulated themselves to being a collection of nut balls in the minds of the heartland.
