the military which has a disproportionate number of both minorities and white southerners has something like a 45/55 split toward republicans.

That sounds about right.

Furthermore, the Army's junior enlisted ranks are dramatically underrepresented in the Military Times surveys.

Too bad they didn't do a full poll, it might have been interesting but they probably didn't because many junior enlisteds don't vote. I'm thinking back to when I was active duty, (not that long ago), to be honest I remember more interest in the stock market than in politics from most enlisteds. I have a feeling if you did poll the them, you'd probably find that they vote according to where they came from, if you know what I mean....

Argh! I just saw Alastairs post with those excellent charts....

Never mind....<ggg>
