When was this?
I can look at a map of hate groups from 2014 and I'm seeing this.

Now for California if you want to tell me there are klan or klan adjacent groups in far Northern California near Redding or in the South in Orange County I wouldn't be surprised, that's where the California wingnuts live.
Anyway, again using California as an example, it has a huge population that dwarfs most southern states by a lot. So, are there more klan members in California? If they were spread out evenly per capita there should be. But I'm sure of that. Got a source?
While were at it, California has more evangelicals than Tennessee which is the most evangelical state per capita. So according to your logic California is more Christian.
Wyoming is the most Republican state per capita in the union. But I feel pretty confident there are more Republicans in California than in Wyoming. Does that make California more conservative? According to you it just might.
Fun times.
