Gettin' old, but still a hippie at heart...


I love how the news is portrayed.

LA Times:

Six of 11 counties reject secession in blow to Colorado effort

Voters in a half-dozen counties in rural Colorado have rejected a call to break away and create a new state, dealing a serious setback to an effort that always seemed a long shot.

Floyd Ciruli, a Denver pollster and longtime student of Colorado politics, said the measure suffered from its seeming implausibility. “There’s no doubt people are angry and wanted a vehicle to express their anger,” Ciruli said. But once they conveyed their frustrations, he said, actually splitting off from the rest of the state was, for many, a step too far. http://www.latimes.com/nation/politics/politicsnow/la-pn-colorado-sece

FauxNews:
Quote:

At least 5 rural Colorado counties vote to explore secession

Voters in at least five rural Colorado counties decided Tuesday they are done with the state government and want to pursue creating the 51st state of “Northern Colorado.”

Voters in Phillips, Cheyenne, Washington, Yuma and Kit Carson counties voted “yes” on a ballot question that asked if they would like their county commissioners to pursue secession from Colorado, along with commissioners from other counties

The vote means county leadership can embark on what many see as a longshot effort to pursue secession, which would have to be approved by Colorado's Legislature and eventually the U.S. Congress. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/11/05/at-least-5-rural-colorado-c

Secession is the word you're looking for. Succession is how kings and queens come to power. Unless they're Freddie Mercury, and then they come to power just by the power of rocking your face off.
