Over the next 3 months PPP will be polling the favorability of all 50 states as part of its national surveys, in order to determine the most popular and least popular ones in the country. We started off this month with the first 17. Here's how they stack up from best net favorability to worst:

Indiana......................31/12 +19
Idaho.........................30/11 +19

-The most popular state with Democrats is Massachusetts (49/9) while the least popular is Texas. With Republicans the most popular is Texas (66/9), while the least popular is Illinois.
Are the past two Presidential elections driving this? Arizona is also unpopular with Democrats (that might have something to do with its immigration bill though).
Interestingly, Arkansas is narrowly unpopular (20/23) with Democrats despite Clinton being from there. Are these people who are aware of its big swing to Republicans? Or just general anti-Southern-ness?

I'm guessing that their politics (particularly with their influence on Prop 8 ) have something to do with this.

This will be a very interesting project.

I read it as they're doing one third of the states each month so the first third was released last week and I think that means the 2nd third will be released in November 15-19 with the last third being released in December 15-19.

I love this idea, but it'd be even better if they had crosstabs of state approval by state!
Looking at the crosstabs, Democrats dislike both states equally, with independents being pretty close as well; Republicans approve of AL a good bit more than MS, probably because they like their new immigration laws.
Why is Alabama more popular than Mississippi?

Mississippi is also historically more embarrassing, though Alabama provides fierce competition in that regard.

It's home to rabid, dumb Steelers fans and has an anti-Philadelphia aura like none other. GO RAVENS! And they have this attitude that their "hard earned tax dollars" go to that "disgusting pit called Flithadelphia". I'm not joking. Imagine if Philadelphia and the 4 surrounding counties form a state.

Americans generally have a favorable view of most states. Only five are in negative territory, led by California (27% favorable and 44% unfavorable), Illinois (19-29), New Jersey (25-32), Mississippi (22-28), and Utah (24-27). Only seven other states have net-positive ratings in the single digits, and another breaks even (Louisiana).
54% see Hawaii positively and only 10% negatively, followed in the top ten by Colorado (44-9), Tennessee (48-14), South Dakota (42-8), Virginia (45-13), Montana (39-7), Alaska (46-17), Oregon (43-14), and North Carolina and Pennsylvania (each 40-11). Ten others are in positive territory by at least 21 points.
There are also some differences across demographic lines. Women have a higher opinion of New York by 27 points more than men, Massachusetts by 22 points, Delaware and California by 16, New Hampshire by 15, Vermont and Illinois by 13, and Connecticut by 11, while men see North Dakota more favorably by 17 points, South Carolina by 15, Wyoming 14, Montana 13, and Iowa and South Dakota 10.
Democrats’ favorite states include Hawaii (62-7), Washington (50-10), Massachusetts (49-9), Oregon (46-6), Vermont (46-9), Colorado (45-8), and New York (51-15), and their least favorites are led by Texas (17-51), Alabama (13-45), and Mississippi (13-41). Republicans love Alaska (65-3) and Texas (66-9), and absolutely hate California (12-68), followed distantly by Illinois (15-44) and Massachusetts (19-47). So the greatest partisan gap is for California, which Democrats like 91 points more than Republicans do, followed by Texas, which is favored more by Republicans by 82 points.
Black voters dislike 10 of the 14 Southern states. The only ones they like are North Carolina (their second favorite overall after Hawaii, at 42-8), Virginia (36-13), Tennessee (36-15), Maryland (32-13), and Florida (34-18). Their least favorite state overall is Alabama (14-56), then Mississippi (15-51), and Texas (17-44).
