Check out this map (should have known a large chunk of Texas was classified as Appalachia)

The New Orleans area, a progressive hub nestled in the Deep South, makes up what Woodard calls New France, as does the Canadian province of Quebec. "After a long history of imperial oppression, its people have emerged as down-to-earth, egalitarian, and 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" Woodard wrote of New France. People in this multicultural region tend to be comfortable with government involvement in the economy, he said.

E. Baton Rouge isn't really either. Certainly less so than Assumption, Iberville, and Pointe Coupee.

Goofiness all around there.

They're right about the Left Coast.

The canucks can keep north New France. South New France is Acadiana and wtf is this nonsense:

Well I wouldn't use the designations in the map in the OP for starters.

Texas is kind of its own separete entity, but if forced to classify it as something I'd call it "midwest", in the same vain as new mexico.

To me "The south" (not really sure we need a south and a deep south) is GA/AL/MS/LA/AR/TN/SC/NC. I want to say KY because of their lifestyle and culture but they're pretty high up there. VA is in the same boat..they obviously have massive "southern" roots of course but they're pretty up there as well.

I know several people that don’t consider Louisiana a Deep South state. No NASCAR track, by the way, little to nonexistent fans of the sport. Disproportionate catholic population compared to rest of the Deep South. Our cuisine is different from Tennessee, Georgia and parts of S. Carolina.

And, think of all the democratic statewide elected officials we have compared to other “red states”
