Almost there....
I can see the US county map in mapshaper
change to albersUSA in mapshaper
then export as TopoJSON
add to Shape map in Power BI
add matching field name to location
change to custom map and point to the new json file
then the map looks like all the shapes are STACKED on top of each other

Using the Mercator projection, all shapes are stacked
any ideas? i'm sooooo close :-)
