I disagree. GC.com asks for coords (not state) when placing a cache so the location (state) is set by GC.com.

Case in point, GCE55 Run For The Border is listed as a NC cache in GC.com but shows up as a SC cache in Project-GC.  Which is correct?  If GC.com is not as accurate as Project-GC (Ground Zero Communications AB located in Sweden) then maybe GC.com should update their political border database so cache listings are correct.  It also would have an impact on counties and other political subdivisions affecting statistics, challenges, etc.  Thanks.

The US is a special case in that geocaching.com will suggest a state based on the coordinates entered, but that can be changed later. In other countries, there are no such suggestions to begin with.
