Juneau, Tallahassee are the most obvious for poor capitals.
Is there a reason for why Frankfort is the capital of KY? New Hampshire's should probably be Manchester? I think Vermont's should probably just be Burlington?

Feel like Grand Rapids would make a better capital.

Probably the only Canadian capital that some discussion can be had about. I think it balances out the Vancouver narrative in BC but i'm sure locals can correct me on that.
I recall Iqaluit being somewhat contentious when they were voting for a capital of Nunavut in the late 90s...I think Rankin Inlet was the runnerup?
