Ryan Zempel has a post at TownHall's C-log pointing out that economically free states tend to vote Republican. He took rankings from the US Economic Freedom Index and grouped them according to how they went in the 2004 election.
A Wilcoxson rank-sum test shows this distribution would happen by chance about once in 40,000 times. Anything that would happen by chance less than once in 20 times is considered a publishable result in the journals.

Could it be that people who want a free economy vote Right, and the Right wants a free economy, so people who want a free economy have a free economy? Not so statistically improbable to me.
