Poll: 65% of Jewish Voters Say Trump Supports Israel; Most Back Kamala Anyway

Joel B. Pollak 16 Oct 2024

A new poll reveals that nearly a two-thirds majority of American Jews agree that former President Donald Trump is on Israel’s side — and yet 62% of American Jews still intend to vote for Vice President Kamala Harris, regardless.

The poll, conducted as part of a larger survey of American adults over roughly six weeks, is a sign of American Jews’ loyalty to the Democratic Party, which appears unshaken even by issues of specific concern to the Jewish community.

Harris is “struggling” with the Jewish community, according to the Forward, and her 62% level of support “would be significantly below what President Joe Biden got in 2020 (77% or 68%, depending on which exit poll you believe) and Hillary Rodham Clinton’s Jewish support in 2016 (about 70% according to two exit polls).” Trump would receive 31% of the Jewish vote, which is in line with what other independent, nonpartisan surveys of Jewish voters have found.

Thus Trump is positioned to win the biggest share of the Jewish vote of any Republican candidate since Ronald Reagan in 1980.

This year, even a small shift by Jewish voters could make a difference in swing states like Pennsylvania — whose Jewish governor, Josh Shapiro, was passed over as Harris’s running mate, largely to appease anti-Israel Democrats.

However, Trump is still going to lose the Jewish vote by a wide margin — much to his annoyance.
The reason may lie in the details of the poll. Fully 65% of Jewish adults agreed that Trump “supports the Israelis,” versus 34% for Harris. (And 25% said Harris “supports the Palestinians,” versus 14% who say that about Trump.)

YES THIS IS REAL

Kamala is so desperate to get the Jewish vote back, her campaign is hosting 'Kamala Shabbat' events except the morons got everything wrong in the advertising:

- There are seder plates on the table. Those are for Passover in April, not Shabbat. (Plus, us Jews are celebrating a different holiday this time of year)
- There is no orange as part of the Seder. Why is there one in a prominent place in a staged photo?
- It is currently the holiday of Sukkot during which Jews eat outside in huts. This event was held indoors during the holiday
- At the meal, her name reportedly replaced God's in places, and attendees read "passages from her book, The Truths We Hold," not the Torah, Tanach, Talmud, or Siddur.

Gee, I can't imagine why Democrats are losing the Jewish vote.
