The Gazette claims the Gulf of Mexico for Hardwick in keeping with New England governor’s responses to the president’s declaration of the Gulf of America as the Gulf of Mexico, where they shared social media memes, with Connecticut’s Governor declaring Long Island Sound to be Connecticut Sound, New Hampshire’s governor naming the Gulf of New Hampshire to be the Atlantic Ocean offshore from Portsmouth and Vermont’s Governor Phil Scott declaring the Vermont River to replace the Connecticut River. While Google, Apple and Bing maps now show the Gulf of America between Texas and Florida, Mapquest continues to show the Gulf of Mexico on their maps and has created an app allowing anyone to rename the Gulf of Mexico to a name of their choice.
