consensus driven, among the most liberal on the continent, with unusually tolerant attitudes toward gays and people of all races and a ready acceptance of government involvement in the economy.

I think they made a mistake when they highlighted Iberia parish as New France.

EBR should be deep south

LOL at Livingston and EBR being a part of "New France"

.....Livingston... Just a beacon of tolerance

Minnesota and Wisconsin are in the wrong category as well. They are Midlands, not Yankee. The upper midwest was settled predominantly by Germans and Norwegians. I could throw in parts of Illinois and Michigan to the Midlands category as well. basically leave out the urban areas of Chicago and Detroit.

THE MIDLANDS. America’s great swing region was founded by English Quakers, who believed in humans’ inherent goodness and welcomed people of many nations and creeds to their utopian colonies like Pennsylvania on the shores of Delaware Bay. Pluralistic and organized around the middle class, the Midlands spawned the culture of Middle America and the Heartland, where ethnic and ideological purity have never been a priority, government has been seen as an unwelcome intrusion, and political opinion has been moderate. An ethnic mosaic from the start—it had a German, rather than British, majority at the time of the Revolution—it shares the Yankee belief that society should be organized to benefit ordinary people, though it rejects top-down government intervention.
