I think a lot of this makes sense, but you’d have to rename places like the PNW to Cascadia and Greater Missouri to something like Arcadia b/c states won’t accept being subsumed into other states. I also disagree on how to draw the California border. It’s basically the mountain ridges.

It looks like if you do it at the county level and have a border that runs Santa Barbara, Ventura, LA, San Bern, Inyo, Mono, Alpine, you get a basically even split of 22 million to 18 million. LA gets Mammoth and some others, but Tahoe is SF territory.

450 wild horses face a roundup in Eastern Sierra as feds proceed with contested plan
Federal officials have set a date to round up and relocate 450 wild horses they say are damaging Mono Lake’s famed limestone tufas and posing a threat to drivers, a move hailed by environmentalists but heartbreaking for tribes and horse lovers who have fought to stop it. On July 8, the Inyo National Forest will begin rounding up horses from the Montgomery Pass herd roaming beyond the roughly 200,000 acres designated for them along the California-Nevada border, according to a recent news release. The horses will be taken in trailers to a corral in Modoc National Forest, where they’ll be readied for adoption. Contractors will use helicopters and other vehicles to drive the horses into a large catch pen with holding corrals. Officials say the use of helicopters is humane and carried out with measures to protect the horses, while many animal welfare advocates claim it can lead to injury and even death. A federal bill introduced last year seeks to ban the practice. The operation is planned for one to two weeks, but may finish sooner.
