Blue states still far better for women: WalletHub

Of the 25 best states for women 22 of them are blue according to the latest rankings from WalletHub.

My home state of South Dakota still holds 51st place for the number of women who own businesses, 49th in percentage of women who voted in 2020 but tied for 1st with North Dakota for lowest unemployment among women.

New Mexico is tied with Alaska for a high femicide rate, 48th for female high school graduation and nearly the highest percentage of women living in poverty.

The bottom 8 states for women's well-being are red.

WalletHub sez jobs are still hard to find in Albuquerque and Rapid City but less difficult in Sioux Falls even as New Mexico and my home state see negative growth in gross domestic product. Sioux Falls is the 12th hardest working city in the United Snakes but is that even healthy?

Black women are sorely underrepresented in state legislatures. There are also currently zero Black women in the U.S. Senate. https://t.co/vM0gZvVq89
