Ah. They said exactly that? In that language? And you believed them without doing any fact-checking because it's what you want to believe, right?
Read the proposal. Until you do, you're not qualified to argue about or against it.

Re: The Politics of Lawyers
"American lawyers lean to the left of the ideological spectrum."
Ref: The Political Ideologies of American Lawyers
n.b. Section 3.1 Overall Distribution of Lawyers' Ideology. presents two tidy chart:
Figure 1 shows the distribution of lawyers' politics
Figure 2 compares the lawyers ideological distribution to that of other professions, e.g. Newspaper. and Print Media [very far left] and Banking/Finance [leaning right] and Medical Doctors [further right].
Interesting study. However, badly flawed methodology--having limitations that the authors admitted to. This included not counting all lawyers, but only those who had made campaign contributions. Also, a campaign contribution was treated as ipso facto proof of a given ideological leaning--when, in fact, as the authors themselves pointed out, donors often give money to the candidate they think is going to win, not the one who is of a given ideology.
I would use the same simple premise that Mark did--that lawyers are wealthier than the general populace and that wealth tends to vote Republican.
