Part of VA goes to DC. That bolsters DC statehood. +1 for dems. VA and WVA merge. +1 for reps. What is left of VA and WVA remain separate states. +2 for reps.
Let them have those northern counties and become a state. What is left of VA remains a smaller state. New VA has to clamp down on zoning and transportation. Make sure the libs can’t invade
Its all a fantastically wild idea but I do think it has a much stronger case than the libtards plans to kill the Electoral College or pack the SCOTUS.
