Reading about all their problems with the upstate hicks, I think I have a solution. The left keeps complaining about NY and CA not getting enough exposure in the senate, being outvoted by Montana etc. How about we give them a break. We split NY at White Plains into NYC and UNY, and CA gets separated into a Coastal CA from San Diego to San Francisco and a Mountain CA for the rest. 4 more senators, that should really help getting those repressed NY and CA voters more of a voice.
Do it as the same time Puerto Rico becomes a state, and you even get a nice new 8/7/8/7/8/7/8 star pattern for the 53 states.
