The Death of Jewish Liberalism
Posted by Daniel Greenfield Jun 19th, 2012
The latest numbers show that Obamas national support among Jews is down to 64 percent. That puts Obama in line with stalwart vote-getters like Walter Mondale and Michael Dukakis. More significantly a Siena College poll shows that Jewish support for Obama in New York City has fallen to 51 percent.
Those numbers might seem strange until you read the latest study on the Jewish population in the city which finds that 40 percent of the citys Jews are Orthodoxup from a third, ten years ago.
74 percent of all Jewish children in the city are Orthodox, a baby boom that will completely transform the citys Jewish population. And that means the transformation of the Jewish vote. Within another decade, New York City will have an Orthodox majority; within a generation that majority will be so decisive as to define its political orientation. The end of the New York Jewish liberal is here.
