Liberals in southern Arizona seek to form new state

A long-simmering movement by liberal stalwarts in southern Arizona to break away from the rest of the largely conservative state is at a boiling point as secession backers press to bring their longshot ambition to the forefront of Arizona politics.

A group of lawyers from the Democratic stronghold of Tucson and surrounding Pima County have launched a petition drive seeking support for a November 2012 ballot question on whether the 48th state should be divided in two.

Don't they already have their own separate state called Mexico?

Typical of both far right and left, if they can't get their way, they act like children.

The left vs right paradigm will continue. The division keeps the people at bay, while they prey and fear monger the masses.

I can understand frustration from a large population on a nation-wide level but... state level?! If that many locals oppose your views, just move or try to change it but don't try to break it in half.

Funny how the liberals thought that the Texans were nuts for wanting to secede. I say, just let these AZ liberals move to California and all will be well in the "Kommune".
