I don't know about balkanization but here are some maps that show states divided by political policies. These maps show an interesting pattern.

States which ban gender affirming care

States which have "right to work" law. Unions are banned from forming employment agreements with companies.

States which ban same sex marriage in their state constitution

States where abortion is currently illegal

States which have laws against boycotting Israel

States with legal marijuana, inverse compared to the other maps
