    I’d vote marijuana legalisation for medical use, but would expect Alaska to be included because they are all potheads there.

    Dunno, but as Illinois is Obama’s home state it’s something about elections.

    The number of federal/state employees under indictment for corruption. Darker blue is better, orange and red worse?

    I’d like to think it’s something profound like the red/orange ones are those in which there have been no executions.

    However, in reality, I suspect that the orange and red ones are those in which Donald Tsang has stayed, with red being presidential suite while orange are merely suites…

    The sustainability of state and local government debt burdens; with bluish hues more sustainable than amber ones.

    Must be right to carry concealed weapons. Illinois is the only state where there is no right at all, everywhere else there is some right. Scary….. I would guess that pale blue is most liberal (coz Texas is in there) through dark blue, yellow, orange and then red

    Concealed carry – Illinois an island of sanity in an ocean of madness – light blue (e.g. Arizona) being the states where both residents and nonresidents have the right.
