There is enough information available that these people are voting against their best interest yet they seem to be oblivious to this. Some blame it on the brainwashing that is being done by the likes of Faux News and other right wing "news" outlets. Studies show that that demographic is one of the least informed, someone who does not watch any news seems to be more or better informed about the current situation in the world/country. Looking at the cheer squad, I cannot help but to notice a lot of parallels that are prevalent in both groups.
