I missed the gay marriage question only because Arizona was there (didn't think Arizona would have gay marriage) so I guessed wrong.
Women in congress... I figured it was 20 or 30%, and guessed wrong again.
I knew the Yahoo CEO is a woman and saw her interviewed before, though that pic wasn't so clear. But got it right because the other choices were weaker for me.
I couldn't believe so many got Anthony Kennedy wrong. That and the Dow Jones question had the most wrong answers I think. I thought Kennedy was pretty obvious, and the Dow Jones was too for me but I know many don't follow the stock market so that wasn't a surprise.

Actually I follow the market pretty closely. I still got that one wrong. I knew that the market has doubled under Obama but I didn't remember the down before the up. Perhaps remembering that would make me a better investor but I see it as trivia.

The main thing I looked for was the big drop in the market in 2008. Only two graphs showed that as I recall, and only one was really steep. Plus the other one didn't show the recovery back to what I think was an all time high at over 1600. Then again, I'm not sure how old those graphs were. So it was mainly looking for the very steep drop in 2008.
And now I see it was New Mexico and not Arizona that has gay marriage. I wouldn't of suspected New Mexico either.
