In all five elections, the
less education one had, the more prone to vote for the Democrat.


Only when comparing Democrat to Democrat. Why don't you compare Democrat
to Republican?

We're talking about education, not geography. The more education one
has, the less likely one is to vote Democrat.


Let's talk about you misrepresenting what the numbers tell us.
Look at 1964 again.

College educated 52% voted Democrat
High School educated 62% voted Democrat
Grade School educated 66% voted Democrat

Go ahead, put the missing Republican numbers on the chart. Clearly, the
less education one has, the MORE likely one is to vote Republican.
