I’ve seen proposed maps of ‘multi-state’ regions; some quite interesting. One liberal multi-state region I would kick to the curb would be the area east of Interstate 81 and north of Interstate 64...another would be ‘Cascadia’...everything west of Interstate 5 on the west coast. How would you link these two regions; if at all?
That would put most of the Puget Sound area other than a few blocks of downtown Seattle in the "not liberal" area. Demarcation should extend about 25 miles east of I-5.
An interesting idea is the “American Redoubt” in Idaho, parts of Washington state, etc.

Highways, and rivers join people together. Thus, any boundary defined by a highway is doomed to fail.
The Regions, IMHO, would be formed on a contiguous geographic basis IF there was also a unifying economic benefit to all.
For example, the States that the Mississippi River runs through would connect the Great lakes to the Gulf of Mexico. This would make a great geographic and economic Region.
The desire for individual Liberty, or Federal Entitlement Slavery, as decided by each State Constitutional Convention would determine admission into an economically viable Region.
Regions that would choose to retain a low level of Personal Liberty and a high level of Entitlement Tax Slavery would rise or fall on the Financial Markets with NO assistance from any Region with no Entitlement Tax Slavery.
There is plenty of time, as 1.) The US Treasury Bonds are still preferred to Gold or Oil as the Standard World Safe Haven for Wealth: and 2.) With low interest rates on US Bonds the US National Debt will not double soon.
Anyway, be thinking about this, as the USA is obviously a Nation in decline, and we need to have a plan ready to go BEFORE the US National Debt Bubble bursts.
BTW, in the Region that I will move to there will be a Congress/Board of Directors who will throw the President/CEO in jail for ANY violation of the Regional Constitution/Charter.
Bad pun coming, but I can’t resist: “The Jury is still out on whether or not a Supreme Court is needed.”
