I'm a little surprised by the "College Degree" vote being that strongly in favor of Ferguson's lack of indictment. Is there a reason why less educated white moderates/conservatives are more sympathetic to Brown than those w/ degrees?
Another factor in the education data that mirrors the political data is the fall-off in support for those with advanced degrees. It is observed that the most reliable Pubs by education are those with a bachelors degree, but not a masters or higher. Those who got post-baccalaureate degrees are the only group of white registered voters by education (Pew 2012) who favor Dems (D+8), compared to those with a college degree (R+7), some college (R+12) and HS or less (R+9).
But we don't see that trend expressed at all in the >$100K income bracket. Wouldn't people with postgrad education dominate or at least be nearly half of the >$100K households category?
