US States East To West In Order Elimination

Directions

Name the US states in order from east to west based on their easternmost point on land. Naming a state that isn’t the next answer will count as a ‘strike’ against you. 3 strikes, you’re out. Please note that these are in order based on very exact US census data, and states which may have a latitude/longitude line for its border often do not have the state’s exact border along that line.
