This is data I plotted up in 2013- various factors by state plotted against the percent that voted for Romney in 2012… data largely from census bureau, I do not have the original spreadsheet, but I did look for the most objective sources I could find… I just did the numbers again for 2014 median income and the trend was the same as the plot below…
Conservative states have the lowest education funding per pupil because- quite simply- the more educated the people of the state are, the more likely the state is to go blue….
Feel free to double check my data… who knows, maybe the red states all have become wealthy in the past 2 years… like Kansas has… 8^)
