New Hampshire is the Alabama of the northeast.
Not a compliment.

Texas of the North? Ohio.

I would say Pennsylvania, with New Orleans being like Philadelphia. The rest of Pennsylvania hates Philly just like the rest of Louisiana hates NOLA. Trash politics and high crime in the city but also good food (Chessesteaks in Philly being similar to Po-boys in NOLA). Great local support for their respective football teams.
When I went to Philly in 2016 I definitely felt like it was a northern version of New Orleans.

First of all as someone who did partially grow up in Kentucky this is not a good comparison. Outside of Louisville and the Northern Kentucky around Cincinnati the rest of Kentucky is southern.
Second as someone who lived there I don't see a lot of similarities.

Minnesota. The small towns are very much like LA small towns.

Culturally it should be Maine. Realistically, Wisky

The state that seceded first, is the birthplace of the Confederacy and fired the first shots of the war against the Yankees isn't Southern? That's some dumb shite.

Have you ever been there for longer than a week?
I grew up there and have been in Louisiana since 2000. They are NOTHING alike.
Wisconsin gets my vote.

What northern state still had pockets of people who spoke a foreign language as little as 60 years ago?
What other states are as divided politically as Louisiana? I'm talking states that have been Gerrymandered into areas that will never vote in any candidate that's different from whoever is in office now. The names change, but the voting stays the same.
What other states have as rich a history of corrupt state and local governments?
I think Alaska is the only other state without counties today. They have boroughs. I believe either Virginia or Maryland used to have commonwealths, or some such.
Hope this helps.

I would have never said that but thinking about it sounds right. Same messed up crap like us. We have more Central/South Americans, they have more Muslims.
