Exactly. The less educated population matters just as much as the more educated. Those people are not represented in this map.
here's all the counties by education attainment. high school, 4-year college, graduate/professional degree.
source of the visuals:

using data from the census:

Other than the obvious typo on the top chart, this is really interesting information.
Why would they be? The map is clearly not about that information. That would be a map titled “percent people 25+ WITHOUT a bachelor’s degree.”
And those are the people that the democrats ignored.
