I posted about this back in February regarding Washington State and here is another example.
To reiterate, we’re seeing more and more secessionist movements within states spring up across the country. Right-leaning rural areas of states want to secede from heavily populated left-leaning urban areas because the rural areas feel effectively disenfranchised. Urban areas have become powerful voting blocks that have allowed them to become a ruling elite, lording over rural areas of their states.
And again, this should be a wake-up call for America, because this is what the Democratic Party wants to do to us nationally.
Our national electoral college was put in place by our founding fathers because, in their infinite wisdom, they knew straight democracies invariably lead to tyranny of the majority. This is also why Congress was divided into two bodies—one based on population and the other based on geography.
The left is pushing hard to get more states to sign onto their National Popular Vote Interstate Compact that would nullify our our national electoral college. Then they want to (1) flood America with illegals (2) fight voter ID laws to make sure illegals are able to vote (for Democrats), (3) lower the voting age to 16 (since that age demographic is far more likely to vote for Democrats than Republicans), and (4) allow felons to vote. This ensures that a small handful of heavily populated left-leaning states will be able to continuously elect a leftist and elitist national government to rule the country. What incentive would mostly rural states have to remain in the United States if in election after election after election their interests get vetoed by heavily populated states?
The United States was not set up to be one continuous geographical voting block. We are a collection of sovereign states.
This is a recipe for division and conflict in America, and it is certainly not in my best interest.
We can’t let this happen!
