This is really creepy

[firecat]

This is a chart of "average IQ by state" and whether the state supported Bush or Gore. I'm not sure which is more creepy, that there is an "average IQ by state" measure at all, or that it correlates so closely with election returns.

Clesest I could find to "smartest state" was http://www.morganquitno.com/edrank03.htm, and in there the ranking moves quite a bit year to year, so I'm also wondering about the numbers, their source, and, as kalmn mentioned, their meaning.
