What percentage of the Jewish vote with Bernie get in NY?

[Filuwaúrdjan]

There isn't really a single 'Jewish Vote' in the sense that people often talk about and even if there was it would be very hard to measure it, particularly in a primary. And contrary to what is often then vaguely asserted, foreign policy is hardly the main political concern of most American Jews. Clinton's likely strong showing will have more to do with general socioeconomic tendencies (i.e. along with the young, Sanders has polled best - and very consistently - amongst whites with manual occupations: well in New York State these people tend not to be concentrated particularly in or around The Great City Babylon) and the fact that Clinton has at least a few links with some important people in the various Hasidic communities.

Anyway the Hasidim are overwhelmingly D registered because in order to have a say in local politics in NYC (and everywhere you go they care far more about local politics than national) you have to vote in the D primary. In recent Presidential elections they have voted overwhelmingly R, but this isn't really contradictory from their perspective.
