| #11 They'd figure out how to split it into three gerrymandered counties, each strongly blue, and add four more reliable Dem Senators. |

| #10 NY should split from the 5 boroughs. There are lots of areas that are ripe for a peaceful division. Get the contractors out, the Senate is gonna need more seats. |

| #6 For WA state - include only the Western half of Snohomish and King counties. There has already been some organizational effort to break off the eastern side of Snohomish country into a new Skykomish county Didn't get too far. |

| #2 I think the best thing to do with Los Angeles County would be to let it become its own little state. Same thing for the Bay Area. Without those two you might find the rest of the state to be a lot more reasonable. |

| #1 Under the proposal written by Draper, “Cal” would consist of a much smaller area of land comprising densely packed areas including Los Angeles, Ventura, Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo, Monterey and San Benito counties. Of all those counties, the only one that is densely packed is Los Angeles and it would dominate the hell out of the others. Mrs. Uluque and I love to visit the wineries in Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo counties and I get the distinct impression the majority of those people would hate their association with LA. SoCal looks good though. Anything that gets me out from under Moonbeam, Newsome, Pelosi, Feinstein, Villaraigosa, Cedillo and all those other jackasses would be a wonderful thing. |
