CA should be split into 5 states (2 über Democrat, 3 slightly GOP-leaning), TX into 4 states (all 4 GOP) and FL into 3 states (1 RAT in South FL, 1 GOP in Central FL (south of Orange County), and 1 GOP to the north).

A new State of Chicagaukee should be formed from the counties bordering Lake Michigan from Milwaukee County, WI to Lake County, IL (which would include Chicago, Milwaukee, Racine, Kenosha, Gary, etc.), but allowing GOP areas to secede if it won’t affect the new state’s contiguity, leaving the remaining parts of WI, IL and IN comfortably Republican. The counties from Detroit/Ann Arbor to Cleveland to Erie, PA to Buffalo should be the State of Erie. A state of Philadelphia should be formed by Philly, Dem suburbs in PA, Wilmongton, DE, and Camden County, NJ. NYC plus Newark, Jersey City, etc. should be a state. Rinse and repeat. After excising all those RAT areas, most of those Obama states would become GOP states.

you don’t need to split states just go to one county one vote in awarding statewide electoral votes.

Thus in presidential elections in FL the candidate who wins the most of the 67 counties would will all of fl’s electors.

Looks logical to me.

I know this was something else that was discussed years back: Can a state be expelled from the USA? Is there a mechanism to do so?

There has been talk of groups of states either leaving the country or being expelled on conservative sites, but most of it has been in jest. But there has been a little discussion that’s serious. I don’t know how to do it.

It is appealing think that the Red States and Blue States could separate from each other because of all the trouble the leftists have been creating. But if conservative states were to do that, we would face problems. We would be a largely landlocked country. We need plenty of major coastline for international trade.
