Introduction

Introduction

Conservative politics often resonate with calls for smaller government size, minimized regulations, preservation of traditional values and free-market capitalism. The Republican Party is widely recognized as the major conservative political party in the U.S. Correspondingly, conservative-leaning states frequently feature low taxes, limited gun laws, significant religious participation, and limited business regulations.

Alabama ranks as the most conservative state with a score of 74 on the conservative scale, followed closely by Indiana and Tennessee both sharing a score of 73.
Southern states occupy seven out of the top ten spots for the most conservative states (Alabama, Tennessee, Arkansas, Florida, Oklahoma, Mississippi, Georgia) clearly underlining the conservative bias in this region.
In the Midwest, South Dakota, Iowa, West Virginia and Missouri also make it into the list of top 20 conservative states.
Some Western states, such as Idaho, Wyoming and Utah, and certain Northeastern states like New Hampshire display a high conservative leaning.
