That is pretty ridiculous. So just because a person voted for Bush, they say you have a low IQ? Geez, I'm pretty sure I know a few smart people, and they voted for Bush.

WHooHoo

Haha. Go Boosh, not.

dont hate bush is the shit! I completely.. without a doubt.. for real.. wow am i one of those uneducated ppl!! WOOT! :)

Honestly, every thing I looked at and read directed me at voting for Kerry. I consider myself being smart as well, but Minnesota does have its fair share of dumbasses.

That link is bullshit, it has been proven to be an internet Hoax. It is the same one that was put up before when Gore/Bush ran 4 years ago. Some magazines have published it thinking it was factual data but then issued retractions. Here is one from the Economist

Retraction from The Economist

"Clueless in St James's .......Last week we published a list that purported to show the IQ s of states voting for George Bush and Al Gore in 2000. Alas, we were the victim of a hoax: no such data exists. By way of apology, here are two very crude ratings of states' intelligence-and how they voted. (Two charts shown for states (1)Math scores for 14/15yo (2) %holding a Bachelor's /gree or above) "

Here are a couple links that show what is really going on.

Wow that is some interesting stuff. Since they are so smart, how come they didn't figure out how to win? Some people have too much time on there hands.

Lame.
