Why is Education Level the Best Predictor of Voting?

[BluesLegend]

Education is NOT the only factor that decides how people vote.

Prissy elitist snob Democrats have been looking down their noses at the working class for decades. They have an inferiority complex among other mental health issues.

I asked a question. Don't start flaming. Can a biological male become a woman?

The elitist snob left hate it when you rub their noses in their stupidity.

And reality

Nancy Pelosi alone debunks this OP. We don't even need to play the AOC card.

Is an “alpha” male a gender identity? A distinct “type” of male?

And reality

Reality is knowing that there’s a difference between biological sex and gender.

The fault line in politics today is education. If you are more educated you vote democrat, if you are less educated you vote republican. Ironically however, both parties are led by politicians educated at the ivy league schools.

Question: Why is education the single best indicator of voting patterns now?

“The biggest single, best predictor of how someone’s going to vote in American politics now is education level. That is now the new fault line in American politics,” Sosnik told David Chalian on the “CNN Political Briefing” podcast.

Trump’s rise over the past three election cycles, Sosnik argued, “accelerated and completed this political realignment based on education that had been forming since the early ’70s, at the beginning of the decline in the middle class.”

As the US transitions to a 21st century economy, there’s a rift between the people who attain education – “that’s become the basic Democratic Party,” he said, comparing them with people who feel left behind, “that group of voters is now the modern Republican Party base.”

There’s a direct correlation to politics. In 2020, according to CNN’s exit polls, voters with a college degree accounted for 41% of the electorate and they supported President Joe Biden 55% to Trump’s 43%. Trump got the support of about two-thirds of White voters without a college degree, but he lost White college-educated voters.

Why? Because if you’ve put off working for years to get a PHD then you are less likely to have any real world experience and thus ignorant to reality and vote dembot

Self interest. Academia is massively subsidised by the government.
These institutions have a vested interest in seeing that the money keeps flowing, and the Democrats in government promote those policies.
The indoctrination, the credentialing, being in the club...it is all downstream of the money.

The answer is simple: INDOCTRINATION.

You see, the Great Leftist Lie is that college makes you smarter when in fact, education does not affect IQ which is set at birth.

But what more time spent in modern, progressive-Liberal universities does is give far left leaning professors more time to bend the heads of students into telling them WHAT to think, poisoning their minds with lots of hateful rhetoric like "democracy is at stake" which of course, then democrats like the OP try to gaslight into college educated people tend to vote more leftist because somehow, they are more "educated."

The word is INDOCTRINATED. That is why as young people grow older and more experienced, they wise up and start leaning more conservative Republican.

Exactly what he said, I too was going to say!

These LEFTISTS are the weak minded ones, not us as they claim. They go to college, and believe EVERYTHING their LEFTIST profs tell them; the Profs with 10 year no less, who are cemented in the university no matter what........that is of course, unless Trump cuts off the cash, lol.

But then, look at the opportunity all you Leftists have should Trump win.......yes, oh yes.....all of you GOVERNMENT UNION PEOPLE when he slashes your jobs, why hell......as you stated.....no problem, the economy is great! All you Profs with 10ure, YOU TOO! You get to show all of us how correct you are.

I personally will be ashamed when you show all of us how great things are, and work less while making MORE in the private sector, lol.

Of course, should we start to hear you whining, it just shows what we said was true---------->YOU thought you were a protected class, and always voted for the people who PROTECTED you.........right golfingphonyebaloney-)

How about we make a deal with you? Let's not let stupid uneducated people vote. I'm all for that. Are you?

In my AO there are so few evil dems that I seldom encounter them. I pretty much treat them as non-people.

I was in East Texas yesterday. The shittier the area, the more Trump signs.

There's little to no daylight between academic education and MARXIST INDOCTRINATION throughout 20th century.
Clearly, the OP didn't take that into consideration before clicking post.

The OP is probably a retired prof who did all the indoctrinating.
