-A Southern California Republican says it is time to split California in half. Jeff Stone, a Riverside County supervisor from Temecula, says he wants 13 of the state's mostly conservative counties to break away and become "South California".

The proposed South California would be made up of Fresno, Imperial, Inyo, Kern, Kings, Madera, Mariposa, Mono, Orange, San Bernardino, San Diego, Tulare and Riverside counties. That totals about 13 million people.

Riverside County's Board of Supervisors will consider the proposal tomorrow, according to the Los Angeles Times. If the board approves the plan, leaders will create a framework for secession and then host a statewide summit on the issue.




Hey Oli,


I am in Riverside County so I would be included. I feel fairly confident saying, it'll never happen. I say "no thanks." We've got other things to take care of here besides the splitting CA into two states. rolleyes Things like "Carmageddon coming this weekend." lol
