Refer to a December 2008 study of 4835 respondents. By Zeljka Buturovic, a research associate of Columbia University, and at Zogby International, and Daniel Klein, a professor at George Mason University.
The study found that respondents who tend to be liberal also score lower on basic, Economics 101 tests.
Because this is highly controversial for those whose politics lean leftward, I suggest the original source. Go to Econ Journal Watch, at http://econjwatch.org for more details.
I may add that there doesn’t appear to have been any change in this phenomenon as the decade has gone on. (See the Earl J. Weinreb NewsHole® comments and @BusinessNewshole at Twitter.)
