Fox News accidentally insults all Mitt Romney voters, LOL
Apparently this election was not only divided along racial and financial lines, but on intelligence lines as well. Our favorite thing about this graphic is that the data Kenny used came from Fox Business, so if you're a Romney voter, this is basically Neil Cavuto accidentally calling you an idiot. Of course, Nevada voted for Obama despite being one of the least educated states, but we can probably chalk that up to the fact that he was the safest bet.

High school and college completion indicates education, although it may not correlate as strongly with intelligence.

you don't necessarily have to be an idiot if you don't have a college degree....if you self educate yourself by reading and staying informed on things you're good to go.... saying things like 'get your government hands off my Medicare' or ' i'm moving to Australia to get away from this socialist country' is idiotic. This statistical report is very surprising to me because i did not know this...wow!!
