State least like its neighbors politically

[nclib]

I was tempted to vote Florida, but northern Fla. is quite similar to bordering Ala. and Ga.

I vote Indiana.

[Keystone Phil]

Pennsylvania. We border New Jersey, New York, Maryland... do I need to continue?

[Defarge]

Indiana.  Even during the Clinton years, she was always a lone red state in a sea of blue.

Or, here in Atlasia, a lone blue state in a sea of red.

Alaska.

[A18]

Virginia/Maryland should be on that poll

[bejkuy]

Of those listed, I'd have to say New Hampshire.

Not just in Dem/Rep, but taxes and regulations.

Business speaking going from NH to MA is like going from US to Canada.

Alaska?! Alaska has no US neighbor!

I think Washington and Idaho are the most different. I don't think any state is more conservative than Idaho and Washington (especially western Washington) is quite liberal. I blame the Cascade Mountains for the division.

It didn't say US neighbor on the quiz.

Also, Eastern WA is a lot like Northern Idaho.  My grandparents live in Clarkston, WA (SE WA, on the snake river) across from Lewiston, ID.  The two towns are very similar politically and culturally.  

An interesting question would be, what state is drastically different from it's neighboring region.  ie, perhaps Portland,OR and vancouver, WA.

okok, so Alaska is different from the Yukon Territories and BC? And the Pacific Ocean?

I know Eastern Washington is closer to Idaho, but Western WA either has more people, has more voters.. or somethin' because, for the most part, the whole state is pretty liberal. (Or maybe it just seems that way because I'm from Missouri, a swing leaning conservative state and "the buckle of the bible belt.")

Florida...it's hardly Southern.  

[??????????]

Florida...it's hardly Southern.  

Then obviously you've never been to Florida. New Jersey is pretty southern from what I hear.

Alaska is certainly different from the Pacific Ocean.  While citizens of Alaska are conservative-libertarian leaning, believing in low taxes and limited government, citizens of the Pacific Ocean believe in avoiding fishing nets and finding appropriate places to lay eggs.

Hawaii

THem aquatic critters are so Republican.

New Hampshire, of course. Indiana has the saem politics as Kentucky (south), and has some closeness with most of Illinois (west) and Ohio (East). New Mexico is actually pretty conservative. Florida is just moderate. New Hampshire, however, is libertarian, and it's neighbors are all liberal.

Tell that to Badnarik, who couldn't get his name put on the ballot in NH. It wasn't a backlash of people against the FSP that left NH Libs off the ballot it was the rule that a party has to get 1,500 signatures in each of the (2) districts. http://www.ballot-access.org/ September 5th News Nader was able to accomplish this, but neither the Libertarian Party nor the Constitution Party were. (Yes thats one canidate able and two entire parties not able)

[Brambila]

I mean socially liberal/economically conservative, not actually libertarian voters.

[DA]

Yes, I suppose it's my error in assuming people vote their conscience.

Yes. Ohio, West Virginia...

[7,052,770]

I'd say NH

Sadly all those states you mentioned are better than our boondock state.
