Best Answer

Yes, you can vote while in the military. The Federal Voting Assistance Program provides help for all deployed military personnel and their familes, along with US citizens who are living out of the country at the time of voting. If you know you are going to be deployed or are based overseas in Europe during voting times, you can send in an absentee ballot through the mail. However, you have to make sure to request a ballot early enough to receive it and send it back in time for it to be counted.

What is the projected military vote for Obama?

If the military are allowed to vote, they will vote very largely against Obama. __ The military are allowed to vote. It is their right to do so, and there are NO laws that on the books that have stripped soldiers, airmen and sailors of their rights to vote. I could find no specific polls looking at the military vote. It's difficult to say because, the military, like the general public is diverse.

What percentage of us military voted for Obama in 2012?

Not all of those votes have been counted yet, but it is safe to say that the military tends to vote Republican. In 2008, Barack Obama got about 44% of the military vote (which was a slight increase over what John Kerry got in 2004), and there is no reason to believe Mr. Obama will get more than 40-45% of the military vote.

What type of responsibility are voting and serving the military?

Voting and serving in the military are part of being a responsible citizen. While some may disagree, saying that both voting and military service are individual decisions, it should be noted that both the right to vote and the option to serve or not was hard-earned by the blood and sacrifice of Americans dating back to the Militiamen's defeat of the British in 1775. On a historical note, ancient Athens, known as the 'birthplace of democracy', required military service as a prerequisite to earn the right to vote.
