The issue is your assertion the military craves war.
Okay. I now understand your confusion. No, I was suggesting, by use of sarcasm, that the poll lacked veracity. In other words, it seems unlikely to me that the regular ranks would be eager to elect someone who will bring them into conflict. Understand now? The armed forces as a matter of course have voted "R" by a wide margin. Even during obama's first election.,

I wonder how many ballots from overseas military will come in too late to be counted this time.

Frankly, I don't know any more, especially at the senior officer level (0-5 and above).

Done some more googling (for whatever that's worth) and you guys are right...Syracuse U is not exactly a bastion of free speech, and more importantly, Jorge is right, historically, rank and file military have been overwhelmingly Republican. I'm thinkin' my mouth overran my ass when I mentioned demographics, I noticed long ago, more hispanic MOH recipients than their base numbers would suggest.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

This publication been a half bubble away from the "National Inquirer" level of credibility for years- followed closely by the Army Times. I read it for the promotion lists, and the annual pay charts - recycled the rest.

The "Military Times" partnered with Syracuse Univ. ran a small on line poll and Biden leads Trump, 41% to 37%, with active duty military respondents. What the hell is going on here? Bad polling? Outright fake news? Military demographics? Noticed the blurb this morning on "National Review", whom I kind of trust. .........All of the above and FAKE news.

I have no idea if the poll is accurate or not but years of letting woman in and promoting them, then openly gay, and now free sex changes has to have some effect on military demographics.

I dunno..................the fact that service members have essentially been locked down on bases for the last 6 months with essentially no leave, or so because of the Corona Hoax, is not helping the attitudes towards the administration much.
And so far, no relief in sight.

Military times is a liberal hack newspaper. We call it the military lies... Soldiers would be quoting from that hack newspaper. We tell them Oh you mean the military lies??
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.
