The educated voter shift

There is a lot of hand-wringing about Democrats losing the non-college educated white voters in this country. But there is a little silver lining. They are gaining college educated voters by the millions. And what’s amazing about all that is that their policies are all designed more to help the middle and working class along with providing much more assistance to the poor. Go figure:

Here’s your insane political stat of the day. In Michigan, Hillary Clinton lost white college grads by 8 pts in 2016.

In 2022 Whitmer won them by 21 points. That’s a 29 point shift in 6 years

Now let's take a look at Georgia. In 2016, Clinton lost white college graduates 28/69. In 2022, Warnock lost them 40/58 … a 21 point shift

How about the GA Gov race … Abrams lost them 36/63. That's a 14 pt shift from 2016

In Pennsylvania, Clinton and Trump tied among white college grads. In 2022, Fetterman won them by 13 .. Shapiro won them by 25

Last one … North Carolina. Trump won white college grads by 19 points in 2016. In 2022, Cheri Beasley (a Democrat) won them my 7 — a 26 point shift.
