Because there tend to be more Jews in liberal areas
Aug 23, 2017, 11:47 AM
[ in reply to Why did Trump only get 30% of the Jewish vote while 70% went ] |
|
I'd like to see the breakdown of religious Jews versus non-religious Jews. My guess is that Orthodox and Conservative Jews are more likely to vote Republican, while Reform Jews and non-religious Jews tend to be more liberal.

Nope. Not even close.
Aug 23, 2017, 12:11 PM
|
|
76 percent of Reform Jews voted for Clinton, as opposed to 21 percent for Trump.
71 percent of Conservative Jews voted for Clinton, as opposed to 25 percent for Trump.
56 percent of Orthodox Jews voted for Clinton, as opposed to 39 percent for Trump.
Among those who identified as merely “just Jewish,” 67 percent voted for Clinton, as opposed to 26 percent for Trump.

Those who are most involved in Jewish religious life, who I would assume are the most interested in "Judaism-related" political issues, are the most likely to vote Republican.

not for the Republican, same as the previous election. Not something that would happen if the "entire Democratic Party" was anti-semitic, as was posited.

Aug 23, 2017, 12:16 PM
|

Some might argue that the growing opposition to Israel on the left is much more significant than a handful of neo-Nazis who say they support Trump, and who have no constituency in the Republican Party.

I'd like a "conservative". Cruz would have been a great fit. I still have a hard time picturing Rand Paul in the Oval Office but I like a lot of what he has to say. I would have taken any Pub over Trump last election. And probably will say the same in 2020.

You're talking about a guy in Rubio whose lifetime ACU vote rating is 95.29 versus a guy in McCain whose lifetime rating is 81.62. Even Heritage Action, which is notoriously tough in its vote ratings, has Rubio at 73% and McCain at 49%, with the average Senate Republican at 56%. In fact, Rubio has been one of the most conservative members of Congress since he was elected. Trying to make Rubio out to be a squishy moderate is hard-core fake news.
