Quite a few talks on state level secession. Secession fever is spreading to the county level.

"In land area, San Bernardino County is California’s largest, stretching from the Nevada state line to just north of Riverside and from near Los Angeles to the Colorado River and the Arizona state line.
It is physically larger than nine states, including Connecticut, Delaware, Rhode Island and New Jersey combined.
Even though Californians by the million drive through it regularly en route to Las Vegas, Phoenix, Salt Lake City and other Western cities, some of San Bernardino County’s 2.2 million citizens feel neglected.
They want more state money for things like welfare, homelessness, road building and repair and many other items.
Some think they can do better on their own than as part of California, to which the county has belonged since there first was a California.
They especially want two U.S. senators of their very own, perhaps because San Bernardino County is often a bellwether in presidential elections, usually switching back and forth from party to party in tandem with national outcomes."
