Part 18. This is the death state rankings sorted by ‘age-adjusted’ population, divided by Red and Blue, over stating population, or under stating deaths.
UTopiAH. This is Part of a series for comparing census based life expectancy and death rate tables, ranking states by how long we live, from 1960 to 2015. Included are medical conditions rating Utah’s #1 health rankings. After 2012, state rankings are now correlated to voting in the 2012 and 2016 presidential elections, with Blue states on top, and Red states assigned to the bottom. Utopia is Sir Thomas More’s (1516) perfect place to live, and with a slight variation in spelling, perfectly describes Utah.

Age adjustment down to a lower rate, increases life expectancy and moves to a higher rank.
NO BLUE State was age adjusted to a higher rating, or worse ranking. The Single District was adjusted upward. Four Red states had their age adjusted rating increased over the rate, dropping them in the longevity rankings.

Life expectancy: The expected average number of years of life remaining at a given age. It is denoted by ex , which means the average number of subsequent years of life for someone now aged x. Life expectancy estimates for 2015 are based on a methodology first implemented with 2008 final mortality data (4). Life expectancies for 2014 were revised using updated Medicare data; therefore, figures may differ from those previously published (5).
Data source and methods
The data shown in this report reflect information collected by NCHS for 2014 and 2015 from death certificates filed in all 50 states and the District of Columbia and compiled into national data known as the National Vital Statistics System. Death rates shown in this report are calculated based on postcensal population estimates as of July 1, 2014, and July 1, 2015, which are consistent with the April 1, 2010, census. Differences between death rates were evaluated using a two-tailed z test.
National Center for Health Statistics
The above NVSS explains that the longevity was changed in 2008, to favor Blue state over Red states.
