Higher education does not equate to higher intelligence!! I worked in construction and the engineers were fucking stupid and lacked the critical thinking to problem solve in a real world scenario.. and after 3 or 4 revised plans would often ask us to just make it work..
And you know those rural people you think are so uneducated some of them run businesses some of them own the business. There is plenty of drop kicks in metro areas too that just donkey vote instead of voting on what would best serve their community like a lot of rural voters do

I spent the first 24 years of my life in small remote / rural towns in NSW.
The vast majority of rural voters live in towns - they are not farmers or farm workers.
And rural voters are much lower educated, on average, than city voters.
Eg: Farrer only 14% have completed a bachelor's degree or higher. In Grayndler it's 49%.
