A staggering 53% of Jewish voters in New York state plan on voting for former President Donald Trump in the November election, a new Siena College poll found.
Just 44% of the Chosen People in the deep-blue state will back President Joe Biden in the race, according to the survey, which polled 65 Jews out of 806 total voters.
The spike in New York Jewish voters backing Trump has come in the wake of the murderous Oct. 7 Hamas terrorist attacks on Israel, with antisemitic hate crimes and anti-Israel protests surging in New York City.
President Biden, meanwhile, has lashed out at Israel in its war against Hamas while the Democratic Party has come under fire for tolerating far-left lawmakers in its ranks who sympathize with terrorists, according to Democratic political consultant Hank Sheinkopf.
“The 11th commandment for Jews is ‘Thou shall vote Democrat.’ Now there’s a 12th commandment: ‘Maybe you should be a Republican, darling,'” Sheinkopf quipped.
The latest polls demonstrate a shift in the New York Jewish vote that is a “clear trend, long in the making,” Sam Markstein, national political director for the Republican Jewish Coalition, wrote on X.

Jewish vote in the Bronx maybe, but I doubt the whole borough. The Bronx isn't that Jewish anymore, and even if large numbers of African-Americans and Hispanics vote Republican, enough are still tied to the government bureaucracy and the Democratic machine, that the shift won't flip the Bronx.
The problem is the dead Jews will always vote Blue. The living will always vote Blue by a wide margin.
They should have done this last time. If for no other reason than that he moved the US Embassy to Jerusalem.
In November we’ll see just how much Oct 7 changes US politics.
Only one kid in my class wore a McGovern button. And the teacher was for McGovern.
If he tops 40% it will be a miracle. I’d be happy if he gets 35% and the rest of the Jewish vote is split with third parties especially if RFK Jr. is a factor.
There are 45,000 Jews in the Bronx.
The Bronx total population is 1.47 million.
That is about 3% Jewish population—not that different than the national average.
Same here. LI. Finance neighborhood. Commuting
Catholics go for democrat presidents 50% regardless of what an upper middle class group of New Yorkers do in the middle of the Viet Nam fiasco that Nixon got us out of
53% isn’t exactly “staggering,” but it’s certainly an improvement from before. The real “staggering” number is the other 47% who are so careless and delusional as to support the most anti-Semitic Presidency in the history of the USA.
[Soros has expressed outright hostility to Israel and Zionism time and time again. It’s no secret. So to discover Soros, is, in fact, one of the largest donors to one of the Israeli lobbies-—— the J Street lobby-—— is a revelation.]
Bronx?
Half of NYC Jews live in Brooklyn. Less than 5% of Bronx is Jewish. Brooklyn is something like 20-25% Jewish, but mainly in two neighborhoods.

[The AMAZING CONNECTION between, the left, Ukraine, Israel, US tax dollars and George Soros:
The Senate’s recent passage of the Biden funding bill made George Soros very happy.
Suggests laundered tax dollars are an income source for Soros’ financing leftist tripe in the US govt.]
What does that buy us?
I’ll believe it when I see rock solid evidence of it.
Their voting habits as presented in the press and the
common understanding, leaves a lot to be desired > IMO.
It’s shocking to know the Left’s view of them, and
how they vote anyway come hell or high water.
J street Lobby Policy on the US-Israel Special Relationship
(with the financial help of $750 million from George Soros).
J Street believes that maintaining a strong, vibrant US-Israel relationship is a core American interest. We want to see a secure, thriving Israel that is a healthy democracy, a national home for the Jewish people and a state for all its citizens that embodies the shared values that have long formed the heart of the special relationship between our two countries. We believe that American diplomatic leadership has an important role to play in helping to make this vision a reality, as does cooperation in (financing) Israel’s security, economic, technological, academic and civil society spheres.
On Friday, Oct 20th, 2023, the Biden Administration sent a Supplemental Funding Request to the US Congress that contains key priorities for the American Jewish community:
Please urge your federal elected officials to take action by sending an email below or picking up the phone to call using the script at the end of this form. Your advocacy will help ensure Congress passes the Supplemental Budget Request, which includes the following:
<><>$14.3 Billion in Emergency assistance to Israel: This emergency assistance will bolster Israel’s ability to defend herself and replenish vital defense systems, including the Iron Dome and David’s Sling missile defense programs.
<><>Increased Funding for FEMA’s Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NSGP): Jewish communities are in a state of elevated readiness and have already been forced to increase their security measure. FEMA’s Nonprofit “Security Grant Program” helps ensure the safety and security of Jewish and other faith-based community institutions. The increased funding included in Biden’s Supplemental Budget Request will help bolster our Jewish community’s capacity to protect itself at this challenging time.
<><>$61.4 Billion in Emergency Assistance to Ukraine: The J Street Lobby stands in solidarity with Ukraine and supports efforts to strengthen its democracy in the face of aggression. This funding will aid Ukraine’s efforts to safeguard its democracy and protect its citizens. Jewish Federations are actively engaged in supporting the Ukrainian people—including by resettling over 2,600 displaced Ukrainians across the United States—and we seek continued U.S. support for these critical efforts.

In previous statements and on its web site J Street had seemed to deny receiving support from foreign interests and from Soros.
Jeremy Ben-Ami apologized for earlier “misleading” statements regarding funding from Soros. Ben-Ami also clarified that donors to 501(c)(4) organizations are promised confidentiality by law and challenged critics to make public the contributions from opposing organizations.
Ain’t going to happen. Trump could be up 80 points and the cheat will push Bidet through.
I’ll believe that when I see it!
NY Jews will vote for the communists even after the extermination ovens are re-fired here in Amerika...
A majority? I’ll believe that when I see it.
Concern trolls seem to fall into two camps:
—Biden will win by stealing
—Biden can’t win so they will have to replace him with (fill in the blank)
The concern troll committee needs to have a Board of Directors meeting and pick one.

Gee, I dunno. My beloved daughter-in-law is Jewish, and after all this hideous antisemitism recently resurfaced she’s rethinking everything. My son, who is a very conservative Republican, said that he has always told her that it’s the leftists/so-called “liberals” who are antisemitic; the conservatives are not. He says, “Now we can agree.”
And everything you posted points to J Street being a Jew-hating anti-Israel lobby.
