What is the Political Geography of California?

^ The Bay Area reminds me old Soviet Union in at least two aspects - both are (were) leftist and, essentially, one party....

Lol....kinda true I guess.

In Soviet Russia, Opposition is driven out

In Bay Area, Opposition drives itself out

No, i disageee politely. In Bay Area opposition is, essentially, driven out too. No one listens to you, no one respects you and your opinion, a lot - despise you openly. Who would like to live under such conditions and stress? Somewhat milder then in USSR, but not by lot... Political sorting at it's best...

Some places in say, rural Alabama are the same way for the other side.   If you don't think so go ask an Abortion provider in the area.

"Southern California" sounds like a pity Republican state so the idea can pass Congress,  I see no other reason for it otherwise.  You can easily draw three safe dem states.
