State Elimination Game: Northeast

[CarMike]

Same rules apply:

* You may vote only ONCE a day.
* Vote + for one state, and - for one state.
* Each "+" vote counts as 1 point to the good.
* Each "-" vote counts as -2 points
* Each state will start with 10 points.
* Once a state has 0 points, they are eliminated.
* Update the list after you vote.
* If you see that someone else beat you to the punch and voted just a minute or two before you did, please update your list accordingly. AFTER YOU VOTE, ALWAYS GO BACK AND CHECK TO SEE IF SOMEONE VOTED RIGHT BEFORE YOU VOTED, AND IF YOU NEED TO AMEND THE TALLY.
* Once a state is eliminated, start a tally underneath the list which includes the date a state was eliminated, along with the name of the state which was eliminated.
*The thread may be closed from time to time to make sure the #s are right. It's very important to make sure we do the best to keep up with votes

This is going to be a tough one for me. I have obvious connections to MD having lived there the majority of my life but that doesn't necessarily mean I think it is the best state in this group. IMO there are many great states in this grouping, at least in terms of quality places to live.

Quit thinking of Maryland of the Fed Ex Field variety. If you've ever been to the Eastern shore, The bay, or the Hills out west...no one should diss this state..

btw I refuse to play any more based on the fact that MD got lumped into "North~shudder~East"

Don't take that personal. lol That's how the lists were seperated at the site I found. Is Kentucky really in the south?

IF you look closely at a map of this US you'd see that IF the country was broken up into four regions (NE, SE, NW, SW) that Maryland as well as Virgina should be in the NE quad. It would also extend all the way west to Minnesota, Iowa, and Missiouri. But I doubt that's how it was done. ............ REGARDLESS, now you've got dj REALLY excited (one less MD vote) but whatever - it's only a game to pass the next 30 days with. Once training camp starts - thread posting will be concentrated on Redskins.

Like most places, DC is a great place to live if you live in the right places. However, unlike most places, the number of those places are increasing.

OK, I have to jump in and start righting a few wrongs. While I don't like the idea of living in the Northeast at all, Massachussetts cannot have that many votes.

I know enough about MA to know that it's on my top 5 least favorite states list. If I actively maintained such a list lol. So I picked NH. I figure any state that has the motto "Live Free or Die" on their license plate and has no state tax has to be the least miserable part of the Northeast.

The crowding is a big issue, of course. But cold, crappy winters and old, dilapidated cities that reek of urine usually turn me off. And then to get taxed to death for the privilege of living in a state where dinner costs $40 before my beverage and I tend to say:

Crowded as in density ........ because believe it or not, according to the 2000 census Washington DC (the city by itself) is not even a top 50 area (meaning county, borough, city).
Yeah I know ...... tell that to someone who's sitting in their car at 5:30 on the beltway.

The district itself, maybe...but the entire Metro area is a top 8 market. AND, crowded as hell. I really don't miss living there; especially the traffic.

right.. that is my real yardstick..how long does it take to get from one area of the city to another ? during rush hour ? during the evening ? during weekends ?

in that sense, seattle is very crowded, whereas portland doesnt feel nearly as crowded to me
