      Wississippi

      Only state to have (I think) four presidential elections decided by less than 1%.

      The states motto is “Forward” and it used to be one of the most progressive states, but it was also the testing ground for the Koch bros media network, that plus the gerrymandering from 2010 really set us back.

      No, I’m living there now, and the city I’m in feels like a wannabe California (aka liberal, techy, high housing costs, etc)

          Wisconsin has three major cities with VERY different personalities. One of them is very Portland/silicon valley (in its own Midwest-y way), one is borderline detroit-y, the other is an overgrown suburbia.

      Yeah, it sucks. But Look at that map. Those lakes are fairly important. Well either that or do a Robert Evans plan and just nuke them.
