Activist Sharon Durst proposed at a recent community meeting that El Dorado County, just east of Sacramento, split from the Golden State.
“El Dorado relies mostly on its income from tourism and on the unhappy people from Sacramento, the Bay Area and Los Angeles buying residential or second homes away from the crime-ridden metropolitan areas.”
The secessionist, who opened her opus with dramatic language echoing the Declaration of Independence, noted in her newsletter she is merely arguing for the county to gain independent statehood, not abandon the nation wholesale. El Dorado County is located just east of Sacramento and comprises parts of Lake Tahoe as well as the city of South Lake Tahoe.She argued that El Dorado County falls under “’other Property’ under the Power of Congress, not the California Legislature,” and therefore could jet from the Golden State.
