According ti Al.com-If you had to pick the most corrupt state in America, what would you choose? New Jersey, home of Bridgegate? Louisiana, the traditional home of backroom deals? Washington, DC? (Wait, that's not a state, but would certainly be right up there, wouldn't it?)


It turns out those perceptions aren't always correct. A new study conducted by Harvard's Edmond J. Safra Center for Ethics shows there are collection of states that are considered the most corrupt but it may not be the ones that immediately come to mind.


Can you guess which state showed up high on the list? That would be Alabama, of course.


The 2014 study looked at both illegal corruption, defined as private gains such as cash or gift in exchange for specific benefits, and legal corruption, that is, political gains through campaign contributions or endorsements by a government official in return to providing benefits for a private individual.


The first type is a more obvious type of corruption and can land you in jail. The second type, while legal in the strictest sense, can be a bigger threat.
