Two of the states that have had the most success with Obamacare are two states that have been among the most active in the Congressional efforts to repeal it: Kentucky and Arkansas.
The Affordable Care Act’s main goal, besides lowering the cost of healthcare, is to insure the uninsured. So if you measure Obamacare’s success by that singular goal, the Bluegrass State and the Natural State are actually the leading states in the nation, according to a Gallup analysis.
In Arkansas, 22.5 percent of residents did not have health insurance in 2013. Last year, that number nearly halved to just 11.4 percent. The 11.1-point drop was tops in the country.
