      I saw this on the BBC and thought you should see it:

      California voters to weigh splitting into three states - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-44471277

      But, why are they being different with the whole "Northern California" and "Southern California"? Why couldn't they just confirm with the Dakotas and the Carolinas and just do North California and South California?

      South California already exists. It's in Mexico.

        Technically it is North California being split. It really should be Southern North California, Northern North California, Central North California, etc.

          South California area has a Northern South California (aka Baja) and Southern South California (Baja Cali Sur.) So as this is part of the larger old Mexican region of California that was already split into north and south, and the south already split into northern south and southern south long ago (1950s) it makes sense to keep it uniform for the region.

                        Your WatchGuard bans TheChive? That is one huge website. They are so big that they have a television channel here.

                                    They already apologized for that one.

                                          I feel like they could have done a bit to update that a bit more.
