World News: California to be split in into 6 states! - yvette4887 - 02-23-2014
Have you heard about California being split into 6 states. They have a ballot to see who would want this to happen and they need 504,760 signatures to make this happen.
Here are links to recent and old articles about this:

Interesting. He brings up valid points, but I think more states would cause issues.
Will be neat to see this unfold.

I'll personally pass on this. While he does bring up some valid points, I think the current system works fine, and splitting up California into 6 states would mess with the perfect voting system.
