What I also find interesting... is those states are also the most industralized. The states with the most business and economy voted for Kerry.
I guess its pointless to even really talk about it because there is nothing we can do now. I just think its sad we have so many misled, confused, and uneducated people out there.

wrong link or not at the end of the day it is still funny,
It is amazing to me that in Australia where i am from on the day of the election they had continuous coveradge on aust tv channels. I mean it isn't even our country and we didn't vote but it was considered that important that they changed all the programmes around to suit the elction coverage.
Another thing though the college systym is f***ing confusing.

It's said that only 10% of the population is intellegent. But you get the rest of the morons out voting and whamo! Idiot is elected.
Don't blame me. I voted for Gore before, and Kerry this time around. Me city also voted heavily straight democrat. We in El Paso are very blue collar and didn't vote as most of the rest of the state of Texas voted.

I think this thing is straight up b.s. First, how can they possibly get accurate state-wide means for IQ? The methodological problems are ridiculous. You can't really do a simple random sample for IQ when very few of the population would have even taken an IQ test. Did they just call people and ask what their IQ was? Second, the chart itself does not reccomend taking it as fact. I would bet that the IQ of Kerry and Bush supporters was probably not significantly different, and this test does not even examine the IQ of the voters. It looks only at the state as a whole and draws inferences about individual IQ's, falling to the ecological fallacy. I'm more surprised that they would have a mean IQ score as high as 113 in any state. This would probably not make it through any peer-edited journals.

The SAT and ACT are not IQ tests. The Stanford-Binnet IQ test is the real deal, testing almost exclusively logic. The ACT and SAT are college prereq exams, designed to predict how well a student does in college. Essay writing, such as in the ACT or verbal components do not indicate IQ. IF you look at the link the other person provided, it does say it is b.s. There is no way any state would have that high of an IQ average.

It's kind of funny how this is based off of high school IQ test, when no one in high school can vote... So I guess that that data would indeed be BS. I'm not sure about the rest of you, but I received the best part of my education after HS

i dont believe that chart....there is no way that those are the average IQs....they are way too low.....i have a hard time believing that an average iq for an entire state is below 100.....i would like to see another chart like this

As for the chart...I could care less what it says and whether or not it is accurate. I just don't like the way many of you make generalizations about people you don't know, from places you have never been. Being disappointed, is not a valid reason for demonstrating such fervid ethnocentricity....in fact, there is nothing that can validate such a position.
Take it easy guys...stop name calling ...it certainly doesn't help your position, or make you look any smarter.

ITS BS AND YOU SHOULD KNOW THIS. YOU SPEAK OF LIBERALS BEING SMARTER ALSO BS. YOU WHO BELIEVE LIBERALS ARE SMARTER SHOULD BE ABLE TO KNOW THIS SINCE YOU HAVE ALL THE SYNAPSES FIRING RIGHT. HOW ONE SIDED CAN YOU BE. I love the USA so much we have the freedom to say and feel what we want. This discussion is what makes this country great. The discussion is being help in a public forum and we dont have to worry about consequences. We also have great skiing and mountains. I also agree with the swellin on the generalzations wouldnt someone with an open mind not be so prone to make snap judgements. Opinions are like assholes we all have one some are prettier than otheres. my 2 cents in the scheme of things is really .0000000000000002 percent but better than .000000000000000 Laters everyone and ski a great winter
