Description
In the first part of the census-data notebook, you have ri = geo.get_partition(39).compute() which downloads a map of Rhode Island, whose FIPS is 44, rather than Ohio, which is 39. I tried get_partition(35) for NM, and, ironically, got Ohio. How can I determine which partition pertains to which state?
Thank you very much.

Research direction
Start with the first part of the census-data notebook and inspect the get_partition(39) example. Verify the partition-to-state mapping using the reported Ohio, Rhode Island, and New Mexico cases. Done means the tutorial explains how to identify a state's partition and no longer presents misleading state examples.
