Illinois remains the third-most corrupt state, based on the formula that compares the number of each area's corruption convictions with its population, according to the report issued by Simpson and his students.
Only #3 in a state with the #1 corrupt major city? Well, who are numbers one and two?
The District of Columbia was No. 1, while Louisiana was No. 2. The states of New York, California, Texas and Florida each had more total corruption convictions than Illinois, but their populations are larger, placing them lower in the ranking.

in the 1920’s, the Torrio-Capone and Dion Obanion crime gangs so thoroughly corrupted Chicago...it simply never recovered...to this day. Amazing...

It’s a little unfair to rank DC as the most corrupt state because relatively little is from city government. Most is federal where minor league sleazes from their home states hit the major league pig trough.

I recall reading in either Newsweek or Time, maybe in 1958 about Illinois and Chicago being totally corrupt.
If they wanted more bribe money they would simply introduce a bill which their rich constituents opposed. Then they would get bribes to defeat it which they did and did.

Generations of low-info, hard-wired Chicago voters have always been the root cause of it.
Even when crime and ruin are everywhere, these voters can’t see the forest for the trees.

The DC municipal government is extremely corrupt! It’s what you encounter if your foolish enough to be a resident, or you come as a visitor and need some action done. Its not very likely you would encounter the greater FedGov employees in any normal way.

How did Washington State not make this list. Or Oregon for that matter.
Washington State is so massively corrupt. Builders somehow manage to get permits for building massive apartment buildings in wetlands.
That isn’t happening in the People’s Soviet of Washington unless somebody is being greased.

There’s a problem with this. confirmation bias. They’re talking about convictions. That’s only the ones that got caught and nailed, i.e. the most egregiously stupid ones.
