I'm planning a website to let users highlight an individual state. Is there a template or a script I can run to automatically outline the states?
Kind of like this http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2011/11/states-federal-taxes-spending-charts-maps
I feel like there HAS to be a template or something out there but I cant find anything.

Those maps are using fusion tables. The polygons for the US states are publicly available in the Natural Earth data set. Another option (for regular Google Maps) is KML.
