Every page, same promiseOfficial 2026 tables, sources stamped with a verification date, tested before it goes live.

45 of 50 states live, plus D.C.The five missing — Delaware, Idaho, Kansas, Oklahoma and Vermont — are waiting on their own states to publish 2026 figures we can read at an official source. We would rather leave a state out than model it from last year’s numbers.
