Quick validation snapshot
Michigan has the highest estimate (83.6%); Hawaii has the lowest (5.7%). The U.S. benchmark is 51.3%. These are useful checks when importing the CSV into a spreadsheet. Reference jurisdictions may lie outside the 50-state range, so exclude rows marked reference when reproducing the default state ranks.
Margins of error are 90% survey margins. Preserve them when reshaping the data; an empty cell and a numeric zero have different meanings.
Calculation and reproducibility
Published estimate; no transformation of the value.
