Posted this on another thread recently. White people without a college education are most likely to support Trump. I don't know what is is about white people that they are more likely to vote Republican overall (being a white woman I just don't get it), but it is about 50/50 Clinton/Trump among educated whites. Education does make a difference in how people vote.
