It would need to be a contiguous area in order for it to work properly.
3 more counties would do the trick.
Not realistically. You cannot orphan the southern part of the state, they'd have to join another state, or leave some physical connection from north to south.
Likewise, I see a little green square in that mass of red. Not sure how that's gonna work.
Though i believe this should be allowed, it'll have to be refined more IMO.
Michigan is one state in two places without a land connection. It's not new.
Those places are separated by water, not land. Hawaii, Alaska, and any number of states have portions separated that way. I'm not familiar, however, of any states that have portions land locked away from the rest of their state.
