Most Jewish Americans Would Vote for Any Democrat Over Trump, Survey Shows

The religiosity continuum is way more complicated than the Wikipedia breakdown you posted. <p> Not getting in to an argument here but I have a lot of experience with this. Read “Boychiks in the Hood” if you’re interested in learning more about Hasidic Jews and why the future of the entire religion becoming more, not less, religious. <p> Most truly religious (Hasidic) Jews would not participate in a Gallup poll, they vote in blocs according to their rabbi and community and would never consider breaking from that. One “rung” of religiously below them (Orthodox and most modern Orthodox) will vote primarily based on the 3 issues I listed in another post below (Israel, economy, social conservatism) and will dig their heels in on those issues. That makes them ultimately more powerful as a political mass than the average kinda non religious Jewish person (reform, conservative, DEF anyone who would describe themselves as “nondenominational”) who uses their own brain (or if you want to by cynical, is just influenced by different media) when making these choices.
