There is no "Jewish vote". Instead there is a culture clash within the Jewish community, just as there is across America. Here's where Trump won among American Jews.
Orthodox and Russian Jewish neighborhoods in New York City came out strong for Donald Trump...
Maps of the voting results paint a stark picture: Nearly every election district that Trump won in Brooklyn was in a Jewish neighborhood...
“Orthodox people have conservative leanings,” said Samuel Stern, a Williamsburg community activist with close ties to the leadership of the Satmar Zali Hasidic group. “You can compare them to Rust Belt voters. They are hardworking people, not college educated.”
Another Hasidic activist in Williamsburg, who asked not to be named, agreed. “The appeal for the middle working class has resonated with a lot of Hasidim, who feel in the same category,” he said.
The Hasidic portions of Williamsburg, Boro Park, and Crown Heights voted for Trump. So did the Orthodox neighborhoods of Midwood and Mill Basin, and Russian Jewish Brighton Beach. Those same neighborhoods also favored Romney in 2008.
Pollock’s analysis of polls and of preliminary results, which do not include absentee ballots, suggests a correlation between religiosity and support for Trump among Jews.
That's true of conservative leanings in general. As I've noted in the past, weekly synagogue attendance correlates with opposition to Obama. Lack of it is tied to support for him. And when focusing in on white voters, this is also true as well.
60 percent of Jews that attend weekly religious services disapprove of Obama. Only 34 percent approve.
Among those who don’t attend religious services, approval of Obama stood at 58 percent to 38 percent.
There is a clash between liberal elites who dominate many organizations and growing religious Jewish communities.
