But Texas would still be the second most populated state and Alaska is only the 2nd from last populated state (before you cut it in half). BTW, if you look it up on the interweb, they count Alaska as 3rd from last, right ahead of the District of Columbia, which isn't even a state.:winner
Dont worry about being 2nd behind Californication. With your lax tax's, low housing prices, abundant land, high wages, good schools and the rest the New Yorkers, New Jersyites, Californians and Chicagoans will all retire there making your population 1st. Then they'll vote Democrat.

I was not considering population.
I was going on state size. You can cut Alaska in half and it would still be bigger than Texas.
Not trying to bash my Texas friends!!!!!
Land area of Alaska is 663,267 sq. miles, land area of Texas is 268,820 sq. miles. :dunno2

That's what we are afraid of. My wife is a little outspoken sometimes. She met one of the new car club members who had just moved to Texas from NY. The first thing she said to her was "I hope you left your NY attitudes in NY." I had to counsel her on community relations.

Most people who leave a liberal third world leftist contaminated state for a good conservative state do so because they can't stand it where they came from. What happens to the state when all the good people leave taking their businesses, money, wives, kids and liquidate all their former assets and leave? When such people relocate, they tend to be the new states' best residents.When people relocate, they need to be reminded to leave all liberal socialistic leftist philosophies behind. That stuff stinks worse than a full outhouse in the summer sun.

Is that surface area or footprint? Most of Alaska is vertical and uninhabitable unless you are a mountain goat....Texas. being mostly flat is almost all useable except for the lack of water thing out west.

As a graduate student in chemistry, my son studied in France for two years. When I initially checked him in, there was a few snooty French students giving him a hard time about Americans. My son casually mentioned that the USA had an area of 3,800,000 Sq miles and the area of France is 248,573 Sq miles. To add insult to injury, my son mentioned that you can put the whole country of France inside the state of Texas and have 20,000 Sq miles left over. All this was said in perfect, native-speaking French and repeated in German and Arabic. He had no other problems after that.

How many times have the French liberated us?
