Can A Town Secede?

At first I thought this must be a joke, but it doesn't seem to be.

Killington residents endorse plan to join New Hampshire

KILLINGTON, Vt. — Voting with a thunderous “aye,” residents endorsed a plan Tuesday for this ski resort town to secede from Vermont.

The overwhelming voice vote inside the elementary school opened the next chapter in what could be a long and costly push to join New Hampshire, a state 25 miles to the east. Town officials estimated between 200-300 people attended the meeting, and that about two-thirds of them supported the idea in the voice vote. [theunionleader.com]

Is it possible to have part of a state inside another state?
