Exciting news for the upcoming election! A recent poll commissioned by the Jewish Democratic Council of America reveals Vice President Kamala Harris leading with 71% of the Jewish vote in key swing states. The poll, conducted by GBAO from September 26 to October 2, shows Harris ahead of President Donald Trump, who garnered 26% support, just weeks before the November 5 election. These swing states include Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona, Georgia, North Carolina, and Nevada.
Despite claims by Jewish Republicans predicting higher support for Trump in swing states, the consistent trend in favor of Harris among Jewish voters is a promising sign for Democrats. The poll also highlights that issues like the future of democracy and abortion rank higher than Israel among Jewish voters’ top concerns.
While the Orthodox Union’s poll in Pennsylvania shows a narrower lead for Harris, CEO Halie Soifer remains confident that Jewish voters will continue to support the Democratic Party. This consistent rejection of Trump among Jewish voters signals a strong outlook for the upcoming election.
