This is shocking: federal employees (N = 3531) responding to this magazine's poll prefer McCain to Obama 51-46. When I worked in DC 25 years ago, federal employees were, by and large, a very reliable voting bloc for Democrats.

Interesting. It is true that there are a lot of retired military in federal jobs, but also a lot of people who view the Dems as their ticket to more job security.

Interesting indeed.
