I thought it might be interesting to just compare Mississippi and Louisiana to start with. As has been mentioned previously, this is a pretty big difference

*************************************************
Mississippi:

Lowest Point:
Gulf of Mexico at Sea Level (source: U.S. Geological Survey)

Louisiana:

Lowest Point:
New Orleans at -8 feet, located in the county/subdivision of Orleans
(source: U.S. Geological Survey)

*************************************************

I think that may be related to the huge difference in the aftermath of the the Hurricane in these two places: The state of Mississippi and a good bit of Louisiana vs The City of New Orleans.

Y'all can now return to arguing about who has better facts and who is more partisan.
