In the New Harmony sidebar, I said, “So, on November 9th, the day after the 2022 midterm election, unless the opposition to the fascist Republican Party, the Democrats, have done well, the governors of America’s 15 solidly Democratic states must come together in favor of a breakup of the United States. This will be necessary, because disunion will allow from 114 million to 250 million of America’s 331 million citizens to escape the Supreme Court-Republican Party dictatorship that will be rapidly consolidating it’s hold after November 8th.”
Let me elaborate now…
There are more than fifteen blue states, but fifteen is the number of states where the legislature and the governorship are both Democratic (the solidly Democratic states). So these fifteen governors are the ones most likely to begin talking about and planning disunion without obstruction from Republicans.
The population numbers I gave are the total for the fifteen states (114 million), and the total for the fifteen states, plus other blue states plus all purple states (250 million). The remainder of the total American population of 331,454,351 million, 81 million, is the total population of all the solid red and moderately red 19 states.
Specifically, these are the states and populations I am talking about:
