Question re: party affiliation and personal incomes
Are there any studies or articles available that break down Democratic and repuke party affiliation by personal income? Any pointers would be much appreciated!

Thanks! :-)

1. I think that its not particularly how much money
you make, but which party you personally identify more with. Being poor and intelligent, I tend to side with the Dems, lol.

3. Not having a lot of luck so far.
Did find this exit poll from 2000:
(8th chart down)

5. It's a pretty straight forward relationship
the less money you make, the more likely you are to vote Democratic

Vote by Income
Under $15,000 Gore 57 - 37 Gore + 20
$15-30,000 Gore 54 - 41 Gore + 13
$30-50,000 Gore 49 - 48 Gore + 1
$50-75,000 Bush 51 - 46 Bush + 5
$75-100,000 Bush 52 - 45 Bush + 7
Over $100,000 Bush 54 - 43 Bush + 11

This is taken from the same 2000 exit poll

6. Perhaps, proving the old saying about being...
...poorer but wiser?

7. $60,000 a year (give or take a little) says we're LIBERALS dammit.
Oh wait...No she's a Yellow Dog Dem and I'm a "RED" Dog Dem?
