‘Modern Orthodox’ (Orthodox Union) mostly support Dems like the non-religious. ‘Young Israel’ is the most conservative of the Modern Orthodox.

Agudath Israel and hassidic Jews are the most conservative, but they are not a large percentage of Jews. Only 10% or so of Jews are Orthodox of any kind, and Agudath and hassidim are a minority of that.

Hard to imagine the Jewish vote mattering outside of Florida anyway. There are far more non-voting self-described Christians.

“Hard to imagine the Jewish vote mattering outside of Florida anyway.”

There is also President Trump’s home state of New York, which his campaign says they will be contesting this cycle.

Beyond the votes, contributions might be swayed (even if just to hold back from the Dems, and plead COVID pressures), as well as the commentary of influential thought leaders.
