Washington, D.C. (November 5, 2014) Exit polls from last night show that Republicans are getting increasing support among Jewish voters, while the Jewish communitys support for Democrats continues to erode.
The exit polls show that 33% of Jewish voters gave their support to Republicans, with 65% going to Democrats. That marks a 30-year low for Democrats.
RJC Executive Director Matt Brooks said:
This year the GOP got 33% of the Jewish vote nationally. This confirms, yet again, the unmistakable trend of increasing Jewish support for Republicans.
Since 1982, the historical average for the GOP in mid-term elections among Jewish voters has been 26%. The range has a low of 18% in 1982 and a high of 33% this year. In each of the last two midterm elections, Republicans got more than 30% of the Jewish vote.
That trend has also been apparent in the Jewish support for Republican candidates in presidential races. From 1992 to 2012, the Jewish vote for GOP presidential candidates has risen steadily (with a small dip in 2008) from 11% to 32%.
We are encouraged by the Republicans strong showing again this year and by the continued inroads the GOP is making in the Jewish community.
Good, but not enough. 0bama hates Jews. Clear enough?
One out of three get it. That’s a start. :)

Us Jewish FReepers are always ahead of the curb!

When Hilarious runs, and she will, will anyone bring up her ‘Jew bastard’ epithets?.............................
The Jewish vote is something I have never understood giving what the dimoKKKRAT party stands for.
Three Jews, four opinions!...................
Is the district Zeldin won in NY Jewish?
It is about time.I love the Jews but not when they vote for a demon that hates them.
American Jews are FINALLY beginning to understand 3 things:
1) Obama hates Jews
2) Obama is negotiating to give Iran a nuclear bomb.
Left wingers, and universities are becoming very anti-Israel, hell, anti Jewish PERIOD!
I tell that joke at least twice a month! lol!
“If you compromise with evil, you just get more evil..”
Best tagline on FR.
Shalom, come on in, the water is fine.
You’ve got to understand that there are different Jews, just as there are different Christians. The Orthodox and Hasidic would be close to your Evangelicals. The Reform would be close to your Unitarians.
Then we’ve got the ‘ploppers’. These people did nothing more than be born from a Jewish womb. Too many of them have no connection with the identity other than the name.
As far as I know, we’re one of the only ‘religions’ that has atheists as members. o.O
It’s really more of a ‘family’ than a religion or a race. And, just like a family, we can adopt kids and we don’t kick out family members that we quarrel with.
RJC needs to work even harder.
I stole it from Henny Youngman......................
