State Employment: Sept 08

BLS released Sept establishment survey report today. On a year-over-year basis using non-seasonally adjusted data...

Nine states had employment growth rates of 1.0% or more. States were mostly in the Great Plains and Mountain West although D.C. and Maryland also made the list. 73 Electoral Votes.

Fifteen states had employment growth rates of less than 1.0% but still saw employment increase for the past 12 months. 127 Electoral Votes.

Twenty-seven states saw employment declines. 338 Electoral Votes.

Hope to have either a map or list up soon.
