Conservative users especially are incredibly under-represented compared to the general population or even the university educated population.

Atheism and IQ are enough to explain most of that. See this Kanazawa paper, or this Gene Expression post (using data which does not have 'libertarian', we know from elsewhere that atheist 'conservatives' are mostly fiscal and not social conservatives).

(Kanazawa paper) Since lightning never strikes the same place twice, this is guaranteed to be a nonrecurrent problem.

Untrue. Paper rejected. ;)
