"The “most conservative” states for me are the ones who have elected the most conservatives and have the smallest state governments. It isn’t based on whether people call themselves conservative."

Totally agree. Gerrymandering can have a long term effect on local elections, but having a state constitution that hamstrings "Lawmakers" is the best way to limit statism. TX should be at the top of the list because we have part time legislators - they only convene in odd numbered years.

I’d like to see a list of the most Libertarian states.

A lot of “conservatives” are law-and-order nanny-state worshippers who want the peasants to follow all their rules.
