Supporters of “Deadbeat Donald” Trump are far more likely to have bad credit scores than the supporters of his Republican rivals, Ohio Gov. John Kasich, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz.
More than 20% of the people nationwide supporting Trump have a bad credit rating, compared to just 10% for Kasich, a new survey reveals.
And while Trump supporters may look down their noses at the supporters of Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders, when you look at their credit scores they’re not all that different. Trump supporters are nearly as likely to have bad ratings as Clintonistas and those “Feeling the Bern” — and are actually slightly less likely to have “good” ratings.
No, this isn’t your father’s Republican Party.
The remarkable insight into the current political maelstrom comes not from a political or partisan source, but from WalletHub, a company that provides online personal finance information. It conducted a survey of a representative audience of 765 people across the country between March 9 and March 13.
Credit scores only offer a quick snapshot of a group of people, naturally. But marketers have found that credit ratings in aggregate are surprisingly good predictors of attitudes and behaviors, which is why lenders and even employers look at them.
According to WalletHub, about two thirds of voters have “good” or “excellent” credit scores and about one third have “bad” or “fair.” But a few details stand out from the survey.
The first is that Kasich supporters are in a league of their own. They have by far the best credit ratings, on average. Some 86% have “excellent” or “good” scores. No other candidate’s supporters even breaks 70%. Kasich’s supporters are half as likely to have bad or fair ratings as anyone else.

It would take a special kind of idiot to believe this hit piece. But, as I have often predicted, they will not be an angle possible that these people will search. It is like an abyss.
Market Watch failed to mention anything about the liberals
Market Watch has all the facts and they should have reported of all liberal voters in our country, 87% have low credit scores ie. 4.4. This 87% entails 140 million liberals and everyone of these lazy scumbags have been on food stamps over and over again and in addition most all of these scumbag liberals have declared bankruptcy.
How do they know the credit ratings of Trump supporters?
Seems reasonable that Bernie’s supporters are the worst of the lot.After all,Bernie never got a paycheck until he was 40.
Trump also crushes Kasich with people who do not want to see their country being turned into a third world toilet.
That's why there are conservative folks like us who will always be here to point out the flawed logic of the delusional filthbag liberals.
They’re just pulling stuff out their butts now.
BTW, I have an excellent credit score. My white uneducated middle working class self is voting for Trump.
HA HA !
Mine is 797 as of last week when we bought a car.
My husband has one just a few points lower.
We both support Trump.
This stuff is never ending.
They went to a rally and counted those wearing overalls vs those wearing suits. They then made the assumption that those wearing overalls were poor credit risks and the suit weren’t. Didn’t realize that those wearing overalls interrupted their work day on their 1000 acre farm to come to the rally. That must be the method because how else.
In the Obama economy that’s almost everybody.
Credit scores are BS. Mine is in the top 8% in my state overall. But it is pulled down because of my lack of credit used. In that I am in the bottom 20%.
Besides who cares about the voters score. I am more concerned with how crappy the candidate is with money. Are they going to spend like a five year old in the candy store. You know like odumby and the RINOs.
They’ll need their SS# first and do a soft check.
Speaking of tubes, some people say “America is going down the drain.” Just wait until they find out Professor Trump is the plunger to speed the flow.

How in the world would they have my social security number or even know I am a Trump supporter?
Cruz measles?
:-)
Anyone hear about Kasich getting a speeding ticket and was nasty to the cop? Was on radio news.
Always tell a man by his enemies and it seems Trump has all the right ones.
