Its also the most foul state, literally. Maryland is voted the smelliest state, and I agree. Its almost always very warm and humid so everything is constantly rancid and it smells like mold and rot. Even drinking the tap water will give you a whiff of mold.
If you work in a dental clinic in the South, you will realize that this list is referring to the amount of dumb fucks who don't brush their teeth and their mouths are actually foul.
