Calexit non binding referendum to be voted on soon. When do we start ours, can it be binding?

With the US crashing, we need to eject and pull the parachute and NEexit.

We send all our money to D.C. to fund states that hate us, have 14x the footing power of a blue city, and the Russian asset traitor trump cut Medicaid expansion 90% to mass reportedly, cut school funding, coming after legal immigrants, green card holders, detained illegally.

The US has become a dictatorship, the revolutionary war was taxation without representation and economic policy that harmed New England.

Is it possible to leave? Do we have the military strength? Or do we allow ourselves to be further and further ripped off and have our rights stripped away that New England fought for, drafted the constitution to prevent.

Dc is responsible for all of this, our states are well run, we have the innovation economy, we have all we need, and nobody will trade with the US again.

To survive economically we need to leave, to avoid 12 years of tyranny and further erosion of the cancer that is dc, what can we do?

Calexit referendum is going to fail for the following reasons:

  1. The person who started it is not affiliated with the California National Party. In fact, Marcus Ruiz was previously affiliated with the now-defunct Yes California movement, which was funded by the Russian government. He does not want to work with the CNP and the CNP does not want to work with a man who has been compromised by foreign agents.
  2. Having a refendum now is brash and hasty, and Ruiz is only working to set the CNP back. When Scotland had a referendum in 2014, that was the worst possible time to do it and set the SNP back by decades. They narrowly lost the referendum and had they waited one year, and held at one month post-Brexit vote, they would have narrowly won the referendum.

Failed early referendums do more harm than good because they give off the impression that the people have spoken and they have said "no, we don't want secession".

Right now, secession in New England would probably poll in the low double digits. NEIC must continue to work for years to spread awareness that an independent and better future is possible before we can gather signatures for a ballot question. 90% of New Englanders don't even know that NEIC exists, how could they possibly support independence right now? We must continue to market our campaign until polls reliably show that 51% or more of New Englanders know about us and support our mission.
