In the U.S. of Voronoi, which state do you live in?

It looks like I'm just within the Arizona border, since Phoenix is slightly closer to me than Sacramento. My grandparents are still living in California though.

New York City is now part of New Jersey.

I guess I'm in New Jersey now.

[Snowstalker Mk. II]

Pennsylvania still.

[Adam Griffin]

Georgia

[Ebsy]

The one centered on Springfield, Illinois.

[Türkisblau]

Still Virginia. I have no idea whether San Antonio being included in NM would be a good thing, lol

[ElectionsGuy]

Wisconsin

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

Right around the New York-New Hampshire-Connecticut tripoint.

[Sol]

WV, ew.

In real life, I have lived in three states and six locations (counting different dorms in the same college as one location).

In this map, I have never left New Jersey.

[Torie]

In a "state" suddenly shorn of NYC area metro money.

[Goldwater]

It looks like I'm on the border of Washington and Montana.

Welcome to the State! I'm still in OH and from NJ.

World Capitals

Would most of those states even exist?   Note you can rotate the globe by dragging, and zoom with a scroll wheel.

Alaska would be administered from Tokyo, Reykjavik, and Ottawa.  Brazil would lose much territory since Brasilia is hardly inland at all.  Scotland, Wales, and Cornwall would come under Dublin dominion.

Antarctica would be ruled from Canberra, Wellington, Cape Town, Montevideo, and Santiago, with a tiny sliver from Buenos Aires.  Athens regains its Aegean coast of Asia Minor.

NoVA/Baltimore.

[Skill and Chance]

Wow. Most of these are amazingly culturally reasonable.

[Aliens]

I'd live in Wisconsin.  Downstate Illinois would finally kick Chicago out!

[Boston Bread]

Not American, but I'd prefer to live in Wisco-Chicago. Although Oregon, Greater Albany, Vermont, and Minnesota would all be great.

[True Federalist (진정한 연방 주의자)]

Greater South Carolina.  It'd be interesting to see what would happen if we gained Asheville, Charlotte, Augusta, and Savannah as in that map.

It's interesting to see how some of the Voronoi borders closely coincide with state lines. For example look at MN-IA, MO-AR, WA-OR, AZ-UT, OH-IN, IN-IL, and IL-MO just to name a few. Central and southern IL nearly fit into the existing boundaries. Presumably that's a feature of states placing their capitals in central locations which can result in capitals nearly equidistant from their dividing line.

[Padfoot]

Well, since I live in Columbus this map does not really affect me.

[Mr. Smith]

I just left West Virginia (college), to return to California (work)

[○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└]

In this US, I have lived in a state that I've never set foot in the real US.

Regarding the potentially competitive states:

1. Washington, Oregon and California all get smaller and more D
2. Nevada is now a 2-3 CD Likely R state pending the L.A. split.
3. Arizona is a very populous lean D state pending the L.A. split.
4. New Mexico: I think El Paso wins and it stays lean D?  The rural parts of Southern CO that it gains are ancestrally Hispanic and lean D, and the rural parts of AZ and UT are Native American areas, but there's ~1 CD worth of 75% Romney TX/OK territory in there.
5. Colorado gets more Democratic due to WY and UT unless it loses Pueblo to NM.  The addition from Western Kansas is < 1/2 of a CD.
6. Minnesota gets a bit more D and Iowa gets slightly more R and has only 1 CD?
7. Wisconsin is now ~60% D because of Chicago, but there is an eastern Iowa vote packing effect.
8. Illinois is probably only lean R because it gains downtown St. Louis.
9. Florida gets slightly more R and might gain a CD
10. Georgia loses ~5 CDs and none of Atlanta, but it gains ~2 CDs of more conservative territory than it lost.  Probably more competitive just because it's smaller.
11. Pretty sure Charlotte/Asheville/Savannah/Augusta make South Carolina a swing state.
12. NC and VA are lean D and probably >30% black
13. PA is now likely R, OH and MI should stay about the same
14. NY is drastically smaller and likely D
15. NH and ME: NH loses some very D northern territory, gains the 2nd most populous county in Maine but misses Portland and dips into an extremely liberal part of VT.  Unclear.

This Texas would get much more interesting than real Texas in 10-20 years.  And it would be weird to see DFW politicians take over the OK statewide offices.

Looked at the world capital version, would live in Liechtenstein
