What state's secession was the worst for the confederacy?
Not sure what the question means. Do you mean worst for the Union? That would be Virginia. It meant that Washington DC had enemy country starting just across the bridge.

That one voted to secede from Virginia and the Confederacy, and made a (not entirely welcome) gift to the Union.
