Which state do you live in?

[/]

I'm not sure if this has been done before, but it will be interesting nonetheless.

I wonder whether the results of this poll will correlate with actual US state population estimates...

[DavidB.]

Lol @ the UK and Canada as options as well.

[Classic Conservative]

Massachusetts

[Murica!]

The best state(New York)

[TDAS04]

South Dakota

(Before anyone complains that this thread is unnecessary because of avatars, it would be interesting to see the breakdown in poll form, and not everyone has avatars.  Some may not even live in their avatars.)

[Leinad]

Georgia (American state, not post-Soviet Republic).

[CountyTy90]

Illinois, but not the fun part.

[Mr. Smith]

Virginia, the hilarious part.

I'm surprised so many people say that they're from another nation.

[Mr. Morden]

Western Australia

[Horsemask]

Maine, though I was born in New Hampshire.

[Mercenary]

South Korea, but my home state is Washington and I'll return there later.

[NeverAgain]

Why is Zimbabwe not on here?

[🦀🎂🦀🎂]

Currently I'm in a state of indignation at the UK being called a state.

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

Flarda.

Surprised by SC and CT...

[TNF]

Born and raised in Kentucky, moved to (and continue to live in) Illinois as of last year.

[Flake]

La Florida

But there's no way to figure out how many people are from each state unless a poll is done.

[Vosem]

Ohio

IL is winning right now...

Overall, though, the results of this poll do seem to be fairly correlative to overall US state population %s.

Technically speaking, there is.

You may argue, "Yeah but a lot of those people may no longer be active!" or "Who would go through the effort of checking that whole list?"

To which I would argue: Most people who are active enough to vote in this poll are probably prolific enough where most people are aware of their presence/where they lived - which means we already (or should at least) have a cursory idea of where most posters live. And if they aren't, then who cares? What does this all mean? Is it actual content creation, or just content aggregation ala Buzzfeed?

The members page doesn't tell where everyone is from. And yes, you could technically compile a list of where each active member is from, but a poll is much more convenient.
