Sports and Politics
 
National Journal ran a story about which sports attract devotees of which party. Apparently, the most heavily Democratic sports are WNBA, NBA and (of all things) WWE. The most Republican sports are PGA Tour, college football and NASCAR. And apparently, Republicans overall watch more sports than Democrats.

Go figure. I have no clue what this means.

The story is here. And here is the graph:

From this chart you can clearly see libertarians are the smartest people.

I would say democrats lose for having WWE, but republicans have a high Nascar turnout so it's a toss.

actually I've been to both of those events in the past....hahah

I'm just gobsmacked that Monster Trucks and Extreme/action sports are both blue dots. And that LPGA and the Olympics are red.

I also have absolutely no clue what this means.

Olympics appeal to American exceptionalism, lpga, who knows.
