For a split second I panicked…Who would have thought that a number of soldiers that would vote left… :p
It would be shocking to hear soldiers veering to the left in droves. Albeit, that’s not the case and this is no news.

In 2004, 73 percent of the U.S. military voted for a presidential candidate, and officials believe it may be even higher this time around.

Interesting how they don’t mention which candidates they voted for. CNN reported that it was 60:40 in favor of Bush.
