I apologize for the slight delay this evening

Yesterday's Results

Washington   23 (71.9%)
Maine   9 (28.1%)
 
Total Voters: 32


Washington once again dominates. It was even more ugly early on when Washington was up 11-1 with over 90%. Maine only managed to bring the percentage down with the aid of pity votes. Another thing to note is the votals. Washington is bringing in the votes. Insane. Washington will face the winner of today's match - both states shouldn't roll over like Maine did though.



The bracket can be found here

Today is Virginia vs Hawaii. Don't let the seedings fool you because this could be a good match. Hawaii did very well in Round 1 losing to California and Alaska by one vote but won an easy second in the Wildcard. Virginia was impressive too by having a solid win over Pennsylvania and Ohio.

This one is a toughie but I think I'll go with Hawaii in the end.  You really can't beat the climate there IMO and I have a semi-fascination with volcanoes.

Both good, but I gotta give the edge to Hawaii.

Virginia's just not my sort of place. I would love to live in Hawaii, of course taking into account the volcanic activity.

Virginia.  Hawaii is just too far out in the middle of nowhere, literally.

I have to vote for Hawaii on the grounds of Virginia's strip club laws.

If SW Virginia was its own state, it would win. As it isn't, Hawaii. And by quite a margin too.

SW Virginia? You mean that white-trash place?

Virginia!  It has the Pentagon, Arlington National Cemetery, Reagan National Airport, and lots of other cool stuff.

Gotta vote for the state I've been to (and liked).
