A new Harvard study asked 280 reporters from every state except Louisiana — where none of the individuals contacted participated in the survey — to rate their perceptions of illegal and legal corruption in the executive, legislative and judicial branches of state government.
Newark Star Ledger: “Only in New Jersey and Arizona did the study find reporters perceived illegal corruption to be ‘very common’ in the executive branch. New Jersey’s legislative branch ranked as in between ‘moderately common’ and ‘very common’ for illegal corruption along with New Mexico and South Carolina, according to the study, which put 10 states in the ‘very common’ column for that category.”
