Syntax Error in Formula

Continuously getting a "Syntax Error" on this formula in Process Builder.  Not currently hitting any limits that I can see.  Formula editor states I'm missing an '=', but can't find where that would be.  Have a very similar formula that works.  

Bad formula:

  OR(
   AND([Contact].MailingState = 'ME'), 
   AND([Contact].MailingState = 'Maine'),
   AND([Contact].MailingState = 'IA'),
   AND([Contact].MailingState = 'Iowa'),
   AND([Contact].MailingState = 'IL'),
   AND([Contact].MailingState = 'Illinois'),
   AND([Contact].MailingState = 'MN'),
   AND([Contact].MailingState = 'Minnesota'),
   AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '55334'),
   AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '55352'),
   AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '55354'),
   AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '55704'),
   AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '55712'),
   AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '55749'),
   AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '55756'),
   AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '56055'),
   AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '56074'),
   AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '56082'),
   AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '56363'),
   AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55001,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55036),
   AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55038,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55309),
   AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55311,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55313),
   AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55315,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55323),
   AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55325,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55328),
   AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55330,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55331),
   AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55336,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55341),
   AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55343,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55349),
   AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55356,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55384),
   AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55386,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55388),
   AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55390,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55599),
   AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55901,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 56017),
   AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 56020,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 56021),
   AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 56023,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 56029),
   AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 56032,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 56039),
   AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 56042,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 56052),
   AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 56057,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 56058),
   AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 56063,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 56072),

   AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 56089,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 56098)
​  )

Good Formula:

  OR(
   AND([Contact].MailingState = 'ND'), 
   AND([Contact].MailingState = 'North Dakota'),
   AND([Contact].MailingState = 'UT'),
   AND([Contact].MailingState = 'Utah'),

   AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '55314'),
   AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '55324'),
   AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '55329'),
   AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '55335'),
   AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '55342'),

I think you have put unnecessary AND for few conditions. Try this. If it works please mark as best answer.

Hi Gururaj.  I have tried that and unfortuntely it does not work either.

I have tried that and unfortunately it did not work.

It could be some weird invisible special character that is causing this issue. So try it in one single line as below:

OR( AND([Contact].MailingState = 'ME'),AND([Contact].MailingState = 'Maine'), AND([Contact].MailingState = 'IA'), AND([Contact].MailingState = 'Iowa'), AND([Contact].MailingState = 'IL'), AND([Contact].MailingState = 'Illinois'), AND([Contact].MailingState = 'MN'), AND([Contact].MailingState = 'Minnesota'), AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '55334'), AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '55352'), AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '55354'), AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '55704'), AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '55712'), AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '55749'), AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '55756'), AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '56055'), AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '56074'), AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '56082'), AND([Contact].MailingPostalCode = '56363'), AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55001,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55036), AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55038,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55309), AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55311,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55313), AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55315,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55323), AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55325,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55328), AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55330,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55331), AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55336,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55341), AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55343,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55349), AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55356,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55384), AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55386,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55388), AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55390,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 55599), AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 55901,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 56017), AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 56020,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 56021), AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 56023,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 56029), AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 56032,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 56039), AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 56042,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 56052), AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 56057,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 56058), AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 56063,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 56072), AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 56078,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 56080), AND(VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) >= 56089,VALUE([Contact].MailingPostalCode) <= 56098)​)

Have also tried that with no luck. When I enter the formula into an advanced formula editor, I’m getting an error that I’m missing an ‘=‘ and it doesn’t show where.
