That isn’t to say that Trump performed terribly among whites who have a college degree. Exit polls showed he won that group, 49 percent to 45 percent. But these correlations underline the fact that Trump’s increased national and regional strength came mainly from non-college-educated whites, a group that he won 67 percent-28 percent.Another way of interpreting the above data is that Trump won the white vote. Some parts were more pro-Trump than others: men more than women, older more than younger, non-college more than college grads.
