“the overall extent of corruption will be higher in states with higher numbers of convictions of public officials.”

Right! Seems most of the comments on this thread don’t take that into account.
That’s why MN, CA, MI, MA, CT, NJ, HW, NY, VA, and so many other States with high public officials’ corruption don’t appear on the list; it’s because they DON’T convict the criminals for corruption as much as those on this top 10 list do.
BTTT
It seems to me that there are a lot of folks who don’t read the links.
