How to play

Guess the state from the way people there talk. Six turns.

Guess by clicking a state, or type its name. A wrong guess points you toward the answer and stains the map — the deeper the colour, the closer you were.

Every turn reveals a clue: one real survey question, and how one state answered it. The last column compares them with the country — ▲ more often, ▼ less, and by how much. Clues start vague and sharpen as your turns run out.

That example is yesterday's puzzle. The answer was New York.
