'''Quick Tip:''' If you have multiples of this box to insert on county pages for the same state, the easiest way to do this is to copy this into your word processing program and insert the name of the state in both the | state and | state_map fields and then save that in your copy so you don't have to keep&nbsp; entering those 2 fields. You can just keep changing the remaining data and cut and paste.
