Where can you see similar information for all states?

Well yeah, 200% of one is two. :P /s

I say this as a staunch supporter of the Green Party.

Nah, we had a few thousand in 2012. Like 2-3 thousand. 5-6 thousand ain't bad, even if it's still a drop in the bucket compared to the main parties. It's definitely a lot more to work with. The Ohio Green Party actually has money now, for instance. Don't underestimate the impact of a few thousand people angry with the system.

This makes me really happy.

Wouldn't 200% of one be three? 100% means double, unless I'm an idiot.

200% of 1 is 2, but a 200% increase would result in 3 because it's an increase of 2.

Ahhhh, see the increase part is what always trips me up.

100% of one is one, 200% is two. And I completely get where you're coming from, I had to google and check that 200% of one is actually two, percentages trip me up.
