It’s a trap! Just a way to create 4 more Progressive Senators.

Are one or more of these states going to secede and “reconquist” with Mexico?

The split looks pretty decent, California would consist of LA and San Francisco (unfortunately OC is stuck) then So Cal and NoCal.

It would be interesting.

This is fine with me, as long as Delaware can split into three states.

2 new states,
2 guarantee elect Democrat Senators, the other possible 2 GOP Senators.
But electoral college wise GOP gets some of CA EVs, but what effect reappointment?

Please review Article IV Section 3 of the Constitution.

If they did this, then the state of “California” would not exist anymore - right ? So does that leave us then with 49 states? Do these three “new” states get automatic acceptance to the “United States” ?

U.S. Constitution, Article IV, Section 3, paragraph 1:
“New States may be admitted by the Congress into this Union; but no new State shall be formed or erected within the Jurisdiction of any other State; nor any State be formed by the Junction of two or more States, or Parts of States, without the Consent of the Legislatures of the States concerned was well as of the Congress.”
It is doubtful that the Legislature & Congress would go along with the break up of California. So this ballot initiative means nothing.

What will CA do for a military? RE: water, I guess they will have a plant to de-salt the ocean. Also, the US will definitely build a wall to keep the Californians out. Can’t have them invading our great country.

Even if adopted by the state of California, the U.S Congress would have to agree to this plan.

What are the chances of that happening?

I only wish the following Counties north of Monterey up to and including San Francisco - San Benito, Santa Cruz, Santa Clara, San Mateo (the county S.F. is in) and Alameda, were not put in North California and left in the new California. That would increase the GOP % in North California.

Names come to mind.

That strip along the coast between LA and SF: Gerrymandia

Farther north? Pelosia or maybe Snobbovia

Is Siliconia Near SF, or part of Hollywood?
