You're cherry picking sources, Mainiac.
No, you are comparing apples to oranges. But not doing it well. For instance apples are red while oranges are not would be a good comparison.
What you are doing is comparing a sample of 1002 adults months before a primary with exit polls all across the country. There are so many problems here I can only barely scratch the surface. For one thing, primaries have really low turnout. A survey of adults is a horrible metric. Only 362 people in the sample were registered republicans. Half of them aren't going to vote. Of that half that do vote, less then half are Trump voters. So now your sample size is 90 people. And you are doing cross tabs on 90 people.
For another thing the data is just not representative of what we know the demographics of the republican primary electorate looks like. Which is because the sample of actual primary voters is mixed in with a sample of non primary supporters.
Exit polls are way better.
Yeah, all these rich people who skipped college.
Yes, more educated people tend to be more liberal while more wealthy people tend to be conservative. And yes educated people tend to be more wealthy. There is no contradiction here. These are well known facts of american elections.
I suggest you git gud.
That's what I was talking about with blinkered thinking. Mainiac wants to demonize/delegitimize Trump supporters as much as possible
No dude, I just like knowing what is actually what. And I really dislike people who pass off shitty stereotypes as better then real studies.
Remember when Neovick said that republicans were poor and I said "no dude, here are some exit polls" and he was all like "thanks dude, but did you consider this?" and I was all like "here man" and he was all like "I am going to understand this new information". Yeah, that was cool. Made me feel all warm and fuzzy 'n shit.
Remember when you were all like "grrrrr, I'm gonna double down on my stereotypes and attack the messenger". Yeah, that wasn't cool.
Find a place that's both poor and rural that voted Clinton
Which Clinton. Bill Clinton? That dude won broad swathes of the country. Hill Clinton? Hasn't run in the general election yet.
