"Democrats lead by 22 points (57%-35%) in leaned party identification among adults with post-graduate degrees. The Democrats’ edge is narrower among those with college degrees or some post-graduate experience (49%-42%), and those with less education (47%-39%).  Across all educational categories, women are more likely than men to affiliate with the Democratic Party or lean Democratic. The Democrats’ advantage is 35 points (64%-29%) among women with post-graduate degrees, but only eight points (50%-42%) among post-grad men."

 

So it seems that the Democrats have the edge among the better-educated.

"Sabato said that "the higher the education level, the more likely [voters] are to vote Democratic." Sabato bases his claim on 2008 exit polls showing this national trend. Several polls and analysis done on data from presidential elections dating back at least a decade support Sabato’s claim."

 

While that may be true it does not tell the whole story.  The flip side:

I think this fits the original posters view and stated opinion.  I know you could easily find another article that counters this one and we could go back and forth all day long which I think proves your first response.  Many of us here on this board do research points and views of the media and other posters.  If only every voter did the same.
