Our data set ranges from the state’s military enlistees and veterans to the share of adults who voted in the 2020 presidential election to AmeriCorps volunteers per capita.

AmeriCorps volunteers per capita.

I bet that they counted that as a plus. Also, I would say they counted the fake votes as voters, except that would have put Pennsylvania higher.

Only a few seconds to recognize the erroneous results.

Sharp enough NOT to waste any more time than that.

“Maryland 3rd?”

This is one of the dumbest rating based conclusion I’ve ever read.

It's a bogus survey. Something called "civic engagement" including things like Peace Corps and AmeriCorps volunteers counts for three times as much as military enlistment and service.

My first thought was that over half the population of Georgia lives in Metro Atlanta and it’s not that different from other big cities in the country, but if you look at the numbers, Georgia is 5th in military engagement, so you are right. It’s the other things like Peace Corps volunteers and voting that drag the state’s numbers down. It’s a bogus survey.

"I don’t know which criteria they’re using, but the results just don’t look right."

Yeah, looks almost backwards to me...

It’s left wing. They include “percentage of Americorps volunteers.”

Honestly the only real time I’ve wasted is responding to your imbecilic posts.....I am however now going to take Mark Twain’s advice concerning arguing with a fool.

Have a wonderful evening.

I am the one responding. You chose to waste your time by initiating the contact.

If it includes enlisted, it might reflect places where kids wanted to get the hell out of. Hence, VT is high on the list.
