What would be the implications of northern and southern California splitting into two states?

Also, what is it's likely-hood of occurring and what is your point of view on the matter - which I'm sure you would have put anyway.What would be the implications of northern and southern California splitting into two states?
The main implications would be that the two new states would have to agree on who still controls what resources and how they will be allocated. The biggest being water. The main water reserves are in the North and the South cannot live without them. Also, the North tends to be more environmentally sound, which means they might pass laws that restrict the water even further.





Remember, in the west, whiskey's for drinkin' and waters for fightin' over.What would be the implications of northern and southern California splitting into two states?
1. Implication would be zero. Northern California is just as if not more liberal than Southern California so there would be no net gain.





2. There would be fewer congressmen/congresswomen and 2 or 4 more senators if they split into 3 states.





3. There would be 2 or more governors.





4. And we would have to endure multiple points of view of insanity from the land of fruits and nuts.





5. Likelihood of occuring about .1 percent.





6. I think California should split off into the Pacific and become its own country. Then it won't be a thorn in the side of the rest of America like it has been for the past 40 years.
It would be more likely that Coastal California would break off because that is where the majority of California's liberalism is concentrated.
It is just a silly internet pipe-dream. It will never happen.





I live in Southern California.
Implications? It would imply something?





If you meant ramifications....well, I guess that it would be divided and not one state any longer.
CA is a Liberal state, except for Central California, so... If they ever going to split, it's probably Fresno. The central part
It won't happen. The federal government will (unfortunately) bail the state out before anything like that happens.
You would have two smaller crappy states instead of one giant crappy state. Other than that, nothing much changes.
Dakota, I have bigger dreams .... of California just seceding all together.
the north would be oregon. the south would be mexico.
Two extra Democratic Senators.
Why would we do that? The days of North versus South in California are long past. We have much bigger fish to fry.
More politician's salaries.
Earthquake?
51 stars on the flag -- kind of awkward
Not
That can be done after we throw Texass out of the union and sell it back to Mexico.
I say give california to mexico. It is a useless state anyways.
SF should form their own little gay nation and LA become part of Mexico once and for all.
