Gingrich Gets His Facts Wrong, Claims GOP Governors Have Lowest Unemployment In Their Regions

Just wanted to point this out since I'm one of Mitch's 6.2%. Liar. Via Think Progress.

At 6.2 percent, Indiana isn’t even close to having the lowest unemployment rate in its Midwest region: It ranks eighth out of the 12 states in the region. Iowa (4.2 percent), Kansas (4.8 percent), Minnesota (5.9 percent), Nebraska (3.5 percent), North Dakota (3.6 percent), South Dakota (3.2 percent), and Wisconsin (5 percent) all posted lower unemployment rates than Indiana. And, as Media Matters notes, “Three of those states — Iowa, Kansas, and Wisconsin — have Democratic governors.”
