Gallup Poll (April 11-May 24 2012)

Problem: Only 7% of the US population are vets..

21.9m vs 300m total, via 2010 census:

The article has bad numbers..

I suspect their "nonveterans" % is also skewed..

Correction: OF THOSE POLED,, but we are still only 7% of the total population...

These data, from an analysis of Gallup Daily tracking interviews conducted April 11-May 24, show that 24% of all adult men are veterans, compared with 2% of adult women.

Well that Poll goes against the MSM spin last week saying the Military and Veterans were for Obama...........

Years ago I read that 80% +/- of Veterans voted. I hope the Vets get out the Vote and get this Ass Clown out of office.
