California ballot: Possible 3 states

A ballot measure has collected enough signatures to bring a vote on whether so split California into 3 states. Apparently this is one of over 200 attempts over the years

What do you think are the odds of his passing?

The rural and more right leaning regions of the state (and other parties) don't like having the larger, more liberal population centers (i.e., Silicon Valley/San Francisco Bay Area and Orange/LA/San Bern/San Diego Counties. Most of California is actually farm land) dominating the votes and tax policies. It's also a ploy to break up CA's electoral votes to make it easier to elect more right leaning executive candidates. I think at one point there was also a plan to break CA up into 7 states (would have created 4 new red states).

Delph pretty much nailed it.

It's very likely just another pipe-dream like Texas seceding or California, Oregon and Washington becoming their own country or whatever that plan was to make an independent city-state in Oklahoma was etc.

Very very slim chance, even if it is voted into play in CA it still needs to be approved by the US congress as well with a 2/3 majority vote.

Also in the state of CA I'm sure the most densly populated areas don't want to have to deal with water rights of border states or businesses in multiple states of CA and taxes....etc etc obviously there are many issues at play.

This will never happen. I've seen some dems already whining over it.

Yes. It sadly won't happen. Commie-fornia has become to powerful of a Socialist Fascist State at this point to let go of any thing.

If we did away with the electoral college, they'd abandoned this state-fracturing idea very quickly. Let's see how much time and money they'd be willing to waste if the electoral college is done away with. smile

Why don't we just do away with Democracy while we are at it as well. Then we wouldn't have that whole Voting thing to screw up the Democrats Total Take over of the Nation.

Problem solved.
