California Has Most Legislators With College Degrees

The New York Times reports on the diminishing returns of a college education:
The most-educated legislature was in California, where 90 percent of lawmakers have at least a bachelor’s degree, followed by Virginia (89 percent), Nebraska (87 percent), New York (87 percent) and Texas (86 percent).
So, the state with the lowest bond rating from Standard and Poor's, has the most "educated" legislators. Got that?
