Theyre not low information at all, rather theyre self interested, rational voters. If Republicans are going to convince the poor to vote for them, theyll have to convince them that welfare isnt in their best interest. That will be difficult to do because the Democrats will forever offer more and more money. To call these people low information though is insulting, these are high information voters. No doubt their values are skewed, they dont share the historic Christian morals this nation was founded upon. If they did they wouldnt be voting for sloth over work. However given their moral state their votes are perfectly logical and intelligent. If were going to change these people, it has to be through faith in Jesus Christ because we will never be able to convince people wallowing in their own sin that they should vote against their economic interests. Especially if it means being forced to work for a living. Good conclusion. IMO the idea that "no education = votes liberal" is incorrect. The deciding factor isn't "low information", it's "low morals".

There are a lot of highly educated upper middle class and upper class people who vote for Democrats. Some of their reasons are economic self interest. However a lot of them vote for Democrats because they don’t have historic Christian morals. Education is a problem but part of education includes the teaching of morality. I think too many Christians ignore this when they send their kids to government schools. The end result is that you can have a highly educated kid with a college degree but no morality. The low morality voter is more likely to vote Democrat.
