Resolves YES if any counties/municipalities successfully secede from one state and join another state, presumably by getting permission from both state legislatures and Congress.

Has this ever happened before?
Would a territorial dispute between states settled by court decision count? From your description, I think no. This has happened several times historically, e.g. see https://www.encyclopedia.com/history/dictionaries-thesauruses-pictures-and-press-releases/boundary-disputes-between-states
@jack I would count it. However, _New Jersey v. New York_ was decided in 1998; the only realistic border-changing potential court case I can imagine is the Georgia-Tennessee border, but that is unlikely.
