Realistically this wouldn't be possible, at least in the way most people assume. It's hard for people to just uproot their whole lives and move to another state (though it's easier these days), a partition like this would mean leaving behind a lot of liberal minded people, who are too poor or too rooted in a place.
On a family zoom call we were comparing house moves. My bro had the record at like 51 times he moved his house. One year he moved to Manhattan, then to Harlem, then to London.
It's not hard, but it can be complex.
I have a garage filled with large power tools, my family and friends are all here and I own the land I live on. It’s hard and expensive to just uproot all that. For someone living an austere lifestyle it would be easier but if you’ve put down roots it’s much harder.
