    IQ versus party vote share by state, 2020 presidential election – LP votes have a much stronger correlation with IQ than other parties.

    October 3, 2024


    Plotted the respective party vote shares at the state's average IQ, and labeled one of the points with the state's name. Tried a bunch of ways to have the names overlap less, but this was pretty much as good as it got. \"Upscaled Libertarian\" was calculated as if federally the LP got as many votes as the other two parties on average: upscaled LP = (national R+D average / national LP average) * state's LP vote share). This would definitely not reflect the Libertarian vote share if that many people would actually vote Libertarian, but it's interesting to see what states vote Libertarian more.
