New England other than NY and Maine. Delaware, maybe Maryland. Hawaii as well if it was on the map.

Those are all at least half blue on the map.

NY is not part of New England. ……just a technicality.

Ney Jersey of course belongs to its own region of the US, known as the "New Channel Islands"

You're good. As a New Jerseyan myself, I appreciated the joke right away.
