There are numerous counties across the country making noise about this, 27 counties in Illinois alone, but how seriously should they be taken?

will any counties succeed from their state by 2024?

I initially resolved this to NO, but I've unresolved to give an opportunity for providing more examples. I think this is a clear NO though - the only example I could find is the Illinois counties, which are merely "correspond[ing] with the boards of other counties of Illinois, outside of Cook County, about the possibility of separating", not actually attempting to secede.

@traders @mods will need to resolve this market. Below, I see the example of some counties in Illinois. I'm not sure that will count as sufficient, but when mods make a ruling, are there any other examples they should consider?

Realized the creator is banned. @mods is this going to be NA'd?

not for that reason! looks like a legit market

@algorithmovigilance they voted to "explore" the idea, but aren't really trying to secede.

Can you define "attempt to"? I can imagine a non-serious proposal, but if it has to actually get substantial official traction then 11% is far too high.

Secede I think

@ian LMAO!!

@ian Those damn secesh!
