A couple of my friends from college competed in the Miss Illinois circut, where one of the Phi Mus is from. It's not a cakewalk, that's for sure. Chicago's got a ton of districts that all send candidates - sheer numbers make it hard to stand out.

I'm sure that is true -- I've heard Oklahoma is a tough win too.

Here is a bit of trivia:
Ohio representatives have won the Miss America Pageant six times, joining California and Oklahoma as the only states with six crowns, and is the only state to have a contestant who won Miss America twice.

Just out of curiosity, where did you read this? I was researching this for another project, and came up with some different figures.
