See, Andrew, moderators have to be online for them to do anything.

Well, perhaps you're the exception that kept Idaho being listed even lower.... After all, it would take approximately 38 other Idahoans with an IQ of 85 to offset you. Then again, for some reason, you felt a need to take exception to data that, if it was validly collected, would only report an average. Going down the list, Bush didn't start a solid showing until you get below the national average IQ. These statistics would seem to show that Bush appeals more to the visceral than the intellectual, which is what might be expected of a Connecticut cowboy.......

Re: Average IQ/income by state won in the 2000 election

I hacked apart this thread trying to edit out the crapola...deal with it. It's not really worth my time.

Oh, and Andrew, please excuse me for making you wait 2 whole hours before I edited this thread. Next time, I'll try to remember that these forums are my life...After all, there is only ONE of me, ATM.

Now, I'm going to bed. I have 6 hrs. of NHB/MMA training tommorrow that I have to prepare for.

Nice results. Truth hurts

But you know what I'd like to see with these numbers? The percentage of people who voted from each state.

Wyoming pretty much puts everyone else to shame with their turnout : registered ratio.

Let's see.... numbers are "probably" a decade old, I'm sure they went and gave an IQ test to everyone (or at least a good representation of the respective populations), and UMASS is a bit biased on their political ideals....

They did manage to harvest in believers - exploiting their gullibility.

Re: Average IQ/income by state won in the 2000 election

This does not tell you the average IQ and income of the voter but instead of the average citizen of that state. Let's see the numbers of the voters.
