"What sociological factors affect voting?"
First answer--
"Social Class and Income": Very wealthy persons (persons in the top percentile of income) are slightly more likely to vote Republican. The middle class is more evenly divided."

HUH?

Seems to me there is only a minor difference as between 'slightly more' and 'more evenly divided'; in fact, 'more evenly divided' could even be 'slightly more'.

No wonder we're a confused society.

There are a trillion example statements like this...but perhaps I exaggerate a bit.
