Need to strip out character in an aura bound field

I have a column that is a multi-select picklist. I would like to translate the semi-colons returned from SOQL to spaces before I display this value. How would I replace all the ';' with spaces?

Here is the part of my page that displays this column
        <aura:iteration items="{!v.territories}" var="t">
            <tr>
                <td>{!t.States__c}</td>
            </tr>
        </aura:iteration>

This currently looks like "AK;AL;AR;AZ;CA;CT;CT;DE;FL;GA;HI;IA;ID;IL;IN;KY"  which does not wrap well.

Hi Vance,

You can use jQuery/JavaScript to remove " ; " or you can remove " ; " in your apex controller.

I was afraid of that. I knew that was an option. I was just hoping for something built in for such a basic operation like string formatting.

For now it willl not be possible in Lightning.
