[lbo-talk] Why do people vote against their interests? P.J. O'Rourke explains

[Doug Henwood]

While there are some poorer white men who vote Rep for cultural 
reasons, we shouldn't forget that votes do broadly correlate with 
income. Here's the breakdown from the 2000 election:

                     Gore      Bush     Buchanan    Nader
<15,000              57%       37%        1%        4%
15,000-30,000        54%       41%        1%        3%
30,000-50,000        49%       48%        0%        2%
50,000-75,000        46%       51%        0%        2%
75,000-100,000       45%       52%        0%        2%
100,000+             43%       54%        0%        2%
