Look up the definition of the word “outlier” and then get back to us.

Look up the definition of the word “outlier”

Is it an outlier or a counterfactual?

I could also point at the Federalist Society or the Heritage Foundation. No shortage of conservative intellectuals in these circle. Plenty of conservatives in business schools, law schools, and medical colleges. And as red states try to purge their academic institutions of "marxist" liberals, we're seeing a rising tide of conservatives as university faculty, staff, and senior administrators - virtually all with graduate level degrees.

On the flip side, the SEIU is full of liberal democrats despite their members rarely having more than a high school diploma. The service sector is flush with low-education liberal voters. The vocational trades are flush with liberal voters. As are agricultural workers, particularly in states like California, Arizona, Georgia, and Florida.

This isn't a good litmus test for determining ideological bias.
