You must know that education and intelligence are not parallel and equal. Also the amount of education often dictates the types of work people do, and the party they favor.
Also, the ranking in this thread did not deal directly with IQ. However, there have been ample studies that show a correlation between social conservatism and low IQ. If you want an anecdotal example, just look at WND.

Did you go to the link? The basis for the best and worst educated ranking was the percentage of residents who had a bachelor's degree or more.
