Not surprised at all.

I feel like Southern poor people are republicans if anything

Shocking.

Voting against their best interests.

Talent won again.

Maryland having the highest household income of any state

Yep, democrats are also more educated and fitter.

Republicans are truly the pits of America.

My parents always said that under a republican president the rich got richer and the poor got poorer

what a load of rubbish. if anything the poor have gotten poorer with the democrats in charge, obama did nothing to stop the ruination of the economy.

good economy = better standards of living

capiche?

ive always known this. Unfortunately they are also the most poorly educated and therefore the most easily manipulated by politicians (aka rich republican politicians)

They want jobs not welfare so makes sense

in general the economy has gotten better with democrats as presidents and worse with republicans. The receipts are literally everywhere.

There are TONS of poor republicans on welfare sis.

That graph is a bit simplistic to make that conclusion in the OP.

It is no surprise that, various states have different average incomes. And every state has significant numbers of people who despite voting are in the minority Party in their State. You have lots of people voting for both Parties in every single State. And there is a great disparity of wealth between individual's within each State.

I think it is well established by Gallup polls that most of the richest 1% of Americans vote Republican. The 1%ers also are more politically active than the average US citizen.

Maybe a GOP voter is less wealthy on average than a Democrat voter, maybe not. The point is that graph in the OP doesn't show that.

That's only cuz the mehicans stole their jobs don't cha know

Bruh.
