ATLANTA — Wanda Melton has voted for every Republican presidential nominee since Ronald Reagan in 1980, but now the Georgia grandmother plans to cross over to support Democrat Hillary Clinton.
“I’m not a real fan of Hillary,” Melton says from her office in Atlanta. “But I think it would just be awful to have Donald Trump.” She adds: “I cannot in good conscience let that happen.”
Melton is among a particular group of voters, whites with college degrees, who are resistant to Trump. Their skepticism comes as an ominous warning as Trump struggles to rebuild even the losing coalition that Mitt Romney managed four years ago.
College-educated whites made up more than one-third of the electorate in 2012. Polls suggest Trump trails Clinton with those voters, especially women.

There are many college degrees available now where one actually comes out stupider and less able to think critically than when one went in.
Operation “Free College” = an eternal Democrat Majority scheme.
RINO snobs for Hillary will not outnumber blue-collar Dems for Trump. No sweat. (By the way, what is wrong with the NY Post?)
I think I see the problem..........
I am a college educated, white republican with a brain. I would never even consider voting for Clinton. The others must be brainless.
Ditto!
Clinton is a pathological liar and idiot. Free this, free that. Comes to a point where everyone is granted a college degree without going to college! Stupid as stupid can be.......Crooked Hillary pandering to the more stupid.
1st you need a “good conscience”
This broad doesn’t have one...
Who would claim to be “too pure” to vote for Trump and then vote for pro-abortion Hillary ???
I think shes trying to say shes a conservative...
Proof that not every college graduate is smart
And the anti-Trump Drum beats on boom, boom, boom. Nice try media scum. No one is listening to you.
Meanwhile, the same white college-educated Republicans don’t see a problem with some dimwit who has their classified email pasted onto some unclassified email and sent to their house, and read by uncleared personnel?
For some reason, I would suggest whoever wrote this....faked the whole article.
Let’s ask the same white college-educated Republican this question....what exactly did Hillary do as Senator and chief of the state department....that impressed you? Or, ask them to name the three draft laws of the eight years as a Senator, that Hillary wrote and got passed through the Senate?
Finally, I’d ask them....what exactly did you study while in college?
I am a white college-educated voter who has a degree in a useful subject (it’s one with the word “engineering” in it, rather than the word “studies”). That makes a huge difference.
Voting for H*****y is not an option.
Bingo. A mind is a terrible thing to waste at some liberal college with Marxist professors.
Any “republican”, from Phd to imbecile, that supports Herself is no Republican.
I know, vote for the one who endangered national security, is a pathological liar and a grifter.

“There are many college degrees available now where one actually comes out stupider and less able to think critically than when one went in.”
You can say that again.
I’d like to see the degree breakdown for these RINOs that are going to vote for Clinton vs. Trump.
My guess is worthless degrees will flock to Hillary. Trump will hold a significant advantage when it comes to those that hold degrees that are useful.
