And no federal judge will intervene - unlike in other states...

Made easier by Reynolds v. Sims. Otherwise, you could upend the control of Chicagoland by having a state Senate in which each of Illinois’ 110 counties is represented by a Senator (equal suffrage by county). Most Senators would then be GOP or conservative Democrat, except maybe for counties containing places like Springfield.

it's inevitable when you flood large cities with uncontrolled immigration of 80% third-world immigrants, most of whom have no clue what a multi-party political world looks like, and so have little objections to one-party rule - just like back home

Imagine an Illinois Senate, if you will, in which Chicagoland is only 3 out of 110 Senators (Lake, Will and Cook).

“Time for large swaths of NY state to separate themselves from NYC. ....”

BINGO!

The Republican Party’s only chance in New York is to dump NY CITY. Upstate NY citizens should tell their senators and assemblypeople to work on dumping NY CITY.
