The states have identical demographics, very similar in nearly every way. What is the deal here?

Even if you compare it to Alabama, Arkansas, heck even Texas, the state is way more liberal. What is the deal?

What? No.

Waaaaay more French, Spanish, german, and Italian influence in S LA.

Also, Catholics like to party

Way more pillow biters in Louisana. Pretty sure STTD started as a gay anthem.

Compared to Southern Baptists? Uh, yeah.

But the more specific answer was already stated: we have more urban areas.

MS has 1 bigger city thats a liberal shithole. LA has 2

More of MS population is spread out into small towns. Small town folk don’t tend to be as liberal as the same demographics in bigger cities

Louisiana has a higher percent of the population that are not net taxpayers. More government jobs and welfare clowns.
