THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CALIFORNIA - This site is dedicated to exposing the continuing Marxist Revolution in California and the all around massive stupidity of Socialists, Luddites, Communists, Fellow Travelers and of Liberalism in all of its ugly forms.


"It was a splendid population - for all the slow, sleepy, sluggish-brained sloths stayed at home - you never find that sort of people among pioneers - you cannot build pioneers out of that sort of material. It was that population that gave to California a name for getting up astounding enterprises and rushing them through with a magnificent dash and daring and a recklessness of cost or consequences, which she bears unto this day - and when she projects a new surprise the grave world smiles as usual and says, "Well, that is California all over."

Proposal to Split California Into 6 States Fails to Make Ballot



The Dream is Over . . . For Now


(KTLA News)  -  The controversial “Six Californias” initiative has failed to make it onto the 2016 ballot, the Secretary of State’s Office said Friday.

According to the Secretary of State’s Office, the initiative simply did not have enough valid signatures when they completed the standard random sampling of petition signatures.

The plan, backed by venture capitalist Tim Draper, was to split California into six smaller states. He says the state is too large to govern efficiently.


One of the states would have been Silicon Valley, which included wealthy San Francisco and San Jose.

Sacramento was lumped in with Marin County to form a northern California state. Los Angeles, San Diego and Riverside anchored three other states.

A sixth state was made up of the northern-most area of the state.

Draper and others who backed the “Six Californias” initiative turned in more than 1.1 million signatures this summer. Friday, the California Secretary of State’s office said “the total number of signatures … filed with all county elections officials is less than 100 percent of the number of qualified voters required to find the petition sufficient”.

A separate plan to group several northern counties, including Siskiyou and Modoc, is in the works to form a 51st state – known as Jefferson.
