Better still...it should become a separate country.We don’t need two more Maoists in the Senate.

Ditto, with New York, if New York City and environs became its own state, separate from upstate. Another 2 automatic Democrat senators always in the Senate.

It's my understanding that the parts of New York State that are more than 50 miles from Central Park are majority Republican.

From what I have read, the new states must receive permission from the state they want to secede from and then they have to be admitted by Congress.

Many overlapping communities with too numerous to count
research and manufacturing areas. That is what the Silicon Valley
is in a nutshell.

Split California East/West. That represents the strongest political
divide. Notch out the San Diego area for the conservative East and
leave sparsely populated Humboldt County with the liberal West.
Sorry Orange County, you are on your own!
