" because someone said that he has a Phd in science and thinks Dems are idiots"
The democratic party today are extreme and idiots. Just because scientists vote for them does not change that fact. The reality is that many do not follow politics. When I discuss politics with my colleagues (remember, I study science for a living) I can name off politicians and parts of the constitution they can't. They only know what the media feeds them which the media is left as well, for the most part. So they go off of the propaganda that Trump was an idiot and a racist, or that republicans are anti-science, all of which is not true.
To me, the democratic party feeds off of those who are myopic and emotional. With professors as in scientists, you have a career where you interact with only other scientists, you teach what you know young, impressionable minds, and you play politics to get tenure where then it is almost impossible for you to lose a job. It is no secret why they vote democrat at that point. As I said, you have to compare scientists in industry to scientists in academics. Even at that, when you look at academics those in the STEM fields are less liberal than those in the liberal arts.
So as a whole, the idea that "educated" people vote democrats and "uneducated" vote republican is simply not true. Those with a higher income typically vote republican and there is a correlation between intelligence and income.
