Hi hellgoingon,
I'd like to suggest you convert these state to same format, then calculate on it.

In addtion, if you want to use abbreviation of the location, you'd better use three-letter abbreviation to ensure the abbreviation text works well in map visual, please take a look at following link to know more about this.Tips and Tricks for Power BI Map visualizations
Note:
When working with countries or regions, use the three-letter abbreviation to ensure that geocoding works properly in map visualizations. Do not use two-letter abbreviations, as some countries or regions may not be properly recognized.
If you only have two-letter abbreviations, check out this external blog post for steps on how to associate your two-letter country/region abbreviations with three-letter country/region abbreviations.
