California Secretary of State Alex Padilla announced Thursday that a ballot initiative called California Nation has been approved by the state to begin collecting signatures to qualify for the 2018 ballot. The effort is supported by the Yes California campaign, an organization that enjoys the support of the Russian government and whose founder, Louis Marinelli, now lives in Russia.

hese people are so stupid its ridiculous to observe. Calexit would be epic. They would instantly go broke.
OK. Buh bye.
Yeah, just like the Quebec Separatists, who figured out they’d go broke several months after winning.
Let ‘em try. I’m thinking about a repeat of the great Atlanta urban renewal project of 1864.
So, how does this (does this) affect the State of Jefferson? Seems to me that it really legitimizes their efforts too. Double edged swords and all that.
You know, this might work out. Maybe we can get everyone who admires the California “Lifestyle” to move there! Illegally, of course.
California companies and their employees would leave the state in droves (in addition to those who have already left). It would be an economic disaster of epic proportions.
The dreams of a liberal utopia would quickly turn into a nightmare. But if they want to leave, I’m all for it!
Great stat I heard on the drive home yesterday:
Fully ONE THIRD of the entire Democrat Congressional Delegation comes from just THREE states.
California, Massachusetts, New York.
A most excellent point!
Not to mention the Red Chinese invasion that would happen ten minutes after Beijing figures out that we’re no longer defending them.
Half of California’s counties want to Exit California and stay with Trump America
Bunch of good rednecks that would make a solid Red State.
Don’t write all of us off
Please Lord please please! let it be so!...it would make the rest of America extremely happy! Let Mexico take care of them let see how far they get... I guarantee you they’ll be in ruins in 6mths to a years time!!!...the red line has been drawn in the sand my California freeper friends it’s time to cross over to the light! Get the hell out of California! :/
This is not Calexit. Its LA/San Fran exit.
And this is flat out treason.
“They would instantly go broke.”
Beg to differ with you. I live out here and can tell you we already are broke. But, I get your point. The state would be unable to function without federal funds.
I would be so happy if California exited the union. Would make America much more sane!
Is signing the ballot just for Californicate residents, or can residents from other states sign the ballot for Californicate to leave?
What Trump should do is say that he supports the CalExit plan and that in response he is giving California back to Mexico.
I would expect a break away California to quickly resemble Argentina under Peron
You can keep your state if you like your state.
