States with new GOP governors outperforming Democrats

Robert Elliot at the Examiner has compiled a list of states that elected new governors in 2010, and what he found was that, as a percentage, states with new Republican governors have hired more workers than states with new Democratic governors:

[I]n January 2011 the U.S. national unemployment rate stood at 9.1%. It is currently 8.2%, meaning that the national unemployment rate has declined by just 0.9% since then. Based on these percentages, it can be said that the job market in states with new Republican governors is improving a full 50% faster than the job market nationally.
