Oh wait. They\’re not.
New Jersey is second only to Massachusetts in a ranking released today of the states by their success at transitioning to the innovative, knowledge-based \”new economy.\”
The Kauffman Foundation study also puts Maryland, Washington and California in the top five. The five lowest-ranked states are West Virginia, Mississippi, South Dakota, Arkansas and Alabama.
The study compares the 50 states on 26 factors, including patents and entrepreneurial activity. New Jersey ranks high for its concentration of high-tech jobs, fast-growing companies, industry-sponsored research and the strength of our digital economy.
It must have just been another honest mistake in my GOP talking points. I\’m sure they\’ll get on it and fix that up right away.
