For the 12,314th time: The merit of this poll is questionable, but if true it does mean Obama could be in for a serious shock.

Federal employees lean Democratic by a significant margin. This may have changed a bit after eight years of Bush, but I’d assume it’s still 60-40 Democrat, conservatively. If your livelihood depended on expanding government, it’s natural you’d usually vote Democrat.

If these numbers are reliable, it bodes well for northern Virginia which is positively lumpy with federal workers.

This bodes well... 68% of federal employees voted for Gore in 2000.

I question this poll. Virginia is full of federal employees. I am convinced the fed emp are the reason why McCain is losing in VA. Obama is going to keep the pork rolling for the fed. emp., that is why VA is supporting Obama.

It appears that the military is not included in "Federal employees" here.

So why does the Federal bureaucracy act like a bunch of communists?

Gee did the ‘no tax increase’ dropping to now $120K have any effect on this poll?

I work for the US Army and I can tell you why the Fed Emp are leaning toward McCain. Obama has promised to cut the Military & cut the Missile Defense programs out completely.

The Fed Emp’s here are scared stiff that Obama will win. They like him, but can't afford to vote for him.

It comes down to there JOBS or the O Messiah!!!!!!!!!

Does the pool of Federal employees include the armed forces? Because I have serious doubts about the numbers otherwise... the civilian employees would vote for whomever keeps them employed and with raises...

If McCain wants to clean up... someone is losing their jobs or not getting raises...

This is from the small subset of government voters who can read, otherwise its a good poll.

Did this survey include active military people?

That’s surprising.

One would think that federal employees would just LOVE Hussein, out of job security if nothing else.

As a former federal employee I can say most of my co workers voted the same as other citizens and since many of us were ex military we usually voted conservative. IMHO, blacks in the military and federal service will vote for Obama.

It will be interesting to see that if Obama wins and if four years from now you can find anyone he admits he voted for him.

For President Barack 0bama and his world wide 0bamacon cult, the Upcoming Election is "Just a Mere Formality!".

The polls show that Lord 0bama has won.

So just stop this stupid and outdated technicality of an Election.

0sama/bama is now our FUERHER UBER BAMA, er president of America and the entire world.
