What do the axes mean? The size of the circles looks like population. Why not use the two letter abbreviations?

Bad design. the relationship between the two variable isn’t clear, it should be abreviations not full names, no legends for the bubble sizes, uneven axis….
A graph that gives us no more information than before is a useless one.

Needs to be broken down by violent crime per 100k people

Would love to see some metric of social support systems, or mental health care ratings or some other metrics that might show stronger correlation and might themselves be correlated with “more conservatism”
Poverty rates or income inequality is always a good metric to check for crime correlations
This chart alone doesn’t show strong correlation to me, “how conservative a state is” is a fuzzy measurement at best in my opinion

Definitely scattered. Baseless and messy.

Someone’s gotta explain to me how the “live free or die” state has such low crime.

Could this have been formatted any worse?

This is absolutely not beautiful, and clearly not a strong correlation by any means so what’s the point?

Now do cities. Everyone knows states means nothing.
