Talking about the Jewish Vote
(Commentary) John Podhoretz - Over the past 13 months, Jews in America have been harassed, threatened, and seen their ancestral homeland derided as a settler colonial genocidal state. They have seen Jewish kids mistreated on college campuses. They have heard the criticisms of Israel's efforts to defend itself, and have noted the refusal of college presidents to condemn the treatment of Jews and Jewish topics under their ambit. The initial evidence from the election is that there has been a significant shift in the Jewish vote from previous elections, though it's very hard to quantify such things. Early data from locales with significant concentrations of Jewish voters - such as Passaic County, N.J.; Palm Beach County, Fla.; Broward County, Fla.; and Nassau County, N.Y. - appear to reflect this shift.
