EdStat: According to the 2017 EdNext Poll, Only 46 Percent of Less-Educated White Respondents Favor Higher School Spending – by Education Next

According to our 2017 EdNext poll, on a number of critical topics, the opinion gap between more- and less-educated white respondents is sizable. Despite their higher estimates of local expenditures, 55% of the more-educated group favor higher spending, as compared to just 46% of the less-educated. That difference narrows only slightly when respondents are told actual levels of expenditure.
