Define "middle class."
Difficult, but "Constituting roughly 15% to 20% of households is the upper or professional middle class consisting of highly educated, salaried professionals and managers. Constituting roughly one third of households is the lower middle class consisting mostly of semi-professionals, skilled craftsmen and lower level management. Middle class persons commonly have a comfortable standard of living, significant economic security, considerable work autonomy and rely on their expertise to sustain themselves"

Your upper middle class percentage is probably too high, and your lower middle class percentage too low.

Anyway, does it really matter at this point? I still lost 2 pounds as a result of the 4 sloppy joes.

Defining "middle class vote" is near impossible, making this a pointless question.

It's going to be swing depending on race and region.
