b3ta Posted August 17, 2004 Share Posted August 17, 2004 A table that breaks down states by income, average IQ, and whether they voted for Bush or Gore has been making the rounds. It appears to show, pretty dramatically, that the states with higher average incomes, and higher average IQs, voted for Gore. Whereas the lower income, lower IQ states went for Bush. The comment accompanying this table is usually 'Come to your own conclusions," or something like that. Could it be a hoax or real? :ninja: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some may not agree with how the votes are counted (I personally don't like the electoral college, but I'm not getting into that here...) but it doesn't matter.

insanekiwi Posted August 17, 2004 Share Posted August 17, 2004 well, it's a proven fact that he screwed up the election in florida so he wins. and you're right, he won and that is what counts, no matter what methods he used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason S. Global Moderator Posted August 17, 2004 Global Moderator Share Posted August 17, 2004 well i have a higher IQ than all of those on that list... which means im smart enough to realize that it doesnt matter who you vote for... theyre all in the same boat and have the same goal... so it's worthless to vote. and yes, anyone who votes for bush has a low IQ... i agree.

Zirus Posted August 17, 2004 Share Posted August 17, 2004 its also a proven fact that white collar workers are more likely to be republican than blue collar workers. so.... I think that is just a little twisted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L3thal Veteran Posted August 23, 2004 Veteran Share Posted August 23, 2004 Show me facts, it's just speculation because he's related to the governor and Florida counted their votes like 600 times :sleep: Well, they were suppose to recount them once, but since Gore won that first recount by a very small margin, Bush demanded another recount, which happened twice more which led him to victory. All the speculation leaves us to think they did screw Gore over, but no one can actually confirm that (not that I know of). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berz Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 The wealthiest people I deal with (pulling in $1+m/year), sans a few exceptions, are overwhelmingly Democrat (or even far left). Also, it's chic to be far leftist amongst groups of bombastic pseudo-intellectual types (read: Chomsky, Zinn, etc). Not an idictment, just an observation. Funny, though: Bill gates is an ardent Democrat, and he's despised by a sizeable chunk of the left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HPMCommander Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 My IQ is 143. That list looks like rubbish. I wouldn't want to vote for either, but I can't see Kerry getting elected. He's Jewish, for Pete's sake! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were threats. There are different kinds of threats. WMD was not the only reason why he toppled Suddam Hussein. To keep it short, try heightening YOUR IQ and you might see it too.
