But, obviously, not all the people of a state will want secession. How does a state secede? It just says it secedes and that’s it? What do the people do who don’t want to secede but still want to live in their state? Would there be a civil war within the state? It can’t be a simple matter. It seems like there would be a lot of legal issues to iron out. I live in Louisiana and would love to see it secede, but I have a lot of friends and relatives who don’t agree. To me, it seems mind boggling.
There are still areas within Texas that are divided along lines that were created by the referendum in Feb, 1861.
