Talk:Cahuilla County, California

I started this page because around the mid-1980s I recall a proposal from residents of the eastern two-thirds of Riverside County, California, to secede from the more urbanized western third because the felt that the county seat at Riverside was too far away to hear their concerns. However, I've found precious little online about the measure. If anyone from the Coachella Valley or Blythe areas or anybody else from Riverside County recalls this and wishes to contribute, feel free to add to the article. I'd be particularly interested if anyone has any old scans of news articles or links to websites referring to the measure. I was reminded of it when Corona attempted to due the same a few years ago.--Larry G 23:54, 17 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Hello...I am a resident in the Coachella Valley, Cal. and there's some talk of a new county in 2006, but not on a ballot. The population is much larger than 20 years ago and it seems Riverside county officials are paying close attention to this area. Just like some Southern Californians want a new state and a few San Fernando Valley residents try to set up a city from Los Angeles, the west coast's political jurisdictions are either too large or too populated or lack enough representation. Imperial Valley, where a large Hispanic community has some La Raza activists argue for the county get returned to Mexico. Currently, there is little demand for a new county (or state) and definitely most locals like being part of the U.S., but the need for expansion of local representation will be the solution to prevent secessions of any kind. --Mike D 26 07:34, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

I don't even know where any of this is, so I added a reqmap tag. --Marikun 20:54, 20 August 2006 (EST)
