State succession support growing

Seattle Times - Almost 1 in 4 Washingtonians — 24%, to be precise — say they’d support the Evergreen State breaking ties with the rest of the nation, according to a recent poll by YouGov.  That puts Washington only slightly above the national average for secessionist attitudes — 23% — but behind eight other states, notably Alaska, Texas and California, whose share of pro-exit residents topped the February survey at 36%, 31% and 29%, respectively.  It also makes Washington more pro-secession than neighboring Oregon, which came in at just 17%, and Idaho, which came in at 20%.
