One Florida City Calls for a State Split: North Florida and South Florida
Tuesday, May 06, 2008

NORTH LAUDERDALE, Fla. — One city commission wants to divide Florida into two states: North Florida and South Florida.

The North Lauderdale City Commission says in a resolution that it's not confident in state leaders when it comes to collecting and spending their own money. It also says it would be "in the best interests of the citizens and residents" to divide the state.

Commissioner Rich Moyle says they're frustrated with the state Legislature "ignoring the cities in South Florida." But he acknowledges the idea likely won't pass.

When asked Tuesday about the resolution, Governor Charlie Crist could only muster up a laugh.

Meanwhile, other municipalities and counties are being asked to join in the resolution. The boundary line would be from Palm Beach County down through Monroe County.

I think the boundary line should be about at the Dade county line and south

works for me although Naples would put me in enemy territory

LOL, there were talks here to split NC in half from east and west since the folks in Raleigh seem to ignore half of the state.

The Spanish side and the English side. Wait long enough for "global warming" and south Florida will be an island anyway.

I know alot of people would like to seperate from Chicago here. You'd think the only place that matters is Chicago because the rest of the state doesn't count....except to serve Chicago.

Gee, Crist sounds so very "effective".

We have this same idea all the time, breaking LONG ISLAND and perhaps the southern counties of NY from the waste land we call up-state. However, being that Long Island, and all of the southern counties send more tax dollars to ALBANY than we get back in AID, they will never let us go!!
