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

@Stralor it happened in Illinois https://www.nbcchicago.com/illinois-election-2024/7-illinois-counties-vote-to-explore-seceding-from-state/3593776/?amp=1

7 Illinois counties vote to explore seceding from state

Another group of Illinois counties has voted to explore whether they should secede from the state, citing significant differences with Cook County and suburban...

@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!
