Methodology

1. California actually received 39 points and New York 37 points because of extra points awarded in certain categories, but the grading system is based on a maximum of four points in each of the categories.

2. Data on local ordinances is provided by Americans for Nonsmokers’ Rights Foundation.

3. There is general consensus among tobacco researchers that every 10 percent increase in the price of cigarettes decreases cigarette consumption by four percent in adults and seven percent in children.
