Your implication is intelligence but the correct answer is shared political interests. It's because Republicans aren't interested in appealing to the college educated crowd anymore, which used to be a strong suit of theirs.

One reason I've heard and very much agree with is that going to college exposes you to a great variety of people of different races and backgrounds and experiences. Same with travel. And the more you get those shared human experiences, the more you can empathize with other people. The more you support social programs, etc.

I don't think he knows. If people with degrees voted dems, that would be a 1:1 ratio, instead it's 1:3 (5% more people with adv. degrees give 15 percent dem lead).
