SAN
DIEGO, Calif., June 26,
2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- GOVX, the online shopping
platform exclusively for current and former military, first
responders, emergency medical professionals, educators, and other
government personnel, recently surveyed current GOVX members to
gauge where Americans of service stand this election year.
From a survey of nearly 20,000 members with
U.S. military, first responder, and government service backgrounds,
Trump has almost 70% of the vote in the upcoming presidential
election.
Through THE 2024 GOVX PRESIDENTIAL PULSE CHECK, GOVX members
were able to provide their responses to a short range of questions
about the upcoming Presidential election, the political issues that
are most important to them, and how they feel about the state of
our country.
GOVX conducted the poll over a 30-day period extending from
April 28th to May 28th, 2024, and
collected 19,748 responses nationwide from those who have served
our country and local communities. This included over 10,000
responses from Active Duty and Veteran U.S. military service
personnel, nearly 5,000 responses from current and former Law
Enforcement Officers and Firefighters, nearly 2,000 responses from
current and former state/federal Government employees, over 1,200
responses from nurses and emergency medical professionals, and over
1,200 responses from current and former public school
educators.
The full report can be found online here, and some of the key
highlights from the findings are:
- 69% of all members polled plan to vote for Donald Trump, as opposed to just 20% for the
incumbent, Joe Biden. 7% plan to
vote for Robert F. Kennedy Jr., with
the remainder writing in other choices.
- 57% of respondents identified as Republican, while Independent
was the next highest answer (29%), followed by Democrat (12%).
- The results largely broke along party lines - Republicans
strongly favor Trump at 92%, Democrats favor Biden at 83%, and
Independents favor Trump slightly at 51%.
- 83% of those surveyed plan to repeat their vote from the 2020
election.
- Trump is overwhelmingly the top choice across service
backgrounds, claiming 67% of Military respondents, 85% of Law
Enforcement respondents, and 76% of Firefighters.
- Among the Military respondents, 66% of Active Duty and 68% of
Veterans say they will vote for Trump.
- Trump has the lead across demographics. Male respondents favor
Trump at 72%, while female respondents came in at 58%. Across all
age groups, Trump has at least 67% of the vote.
- Respondents have an issue with Joe
Biden's age (72%), but not with Donald Trump's age (28%).

very little impact on their voting decision - 95% say a guilty
verdict doesn't change their vote.
- Regarding today's core political issues, respondents placed the
highest priority on economy/inflation, border security, and
immigration.
- In terms of outlook on the current state of the country, 63% of
members held a negative opinion, while 31% were mixed.
