Trump's German harvest

[sparkey]

BuzzFeed actually polled by ancestry, and German-Americans were super Trump supporters: https://www.buzzfeed.com/peteraldhous/trump-and-the-white-vote?utm_term=.hqBya6yjy#.so5ZyVZoZ

They have:

German: 33% Clinton, 51% Trump (Trump +18)
American: 33% Clinton, 50% Trump (Trump +17)
Italian: 33% Clinton, 44% Trump (Trump +11)
English: 37% Clinton, 43% Trump (Trump +6)
Irish: 39% Clinton, 40% Trump (Trump +1)

I also went through their raw data earlier and got this for the less-polled ancestries:

Swedish: Clinton 33%, Trump 48% (Trump +15) n=39
Polish: Clinton 35%, Trump 44% (Trump +9) n=125
Dutch: Clinton 34%, Trump 41% (Trump +7) n=41
French: Clinton 35%, Trump 35% (even) n=71
Norwegian: Clinton 37%, Trump 37% (even) n=49
Scottish: Clinton 41%, Trump 38% (Clinton +3) n=107

They also allowed volunteered responses, here are some of the more notable ones:

Danish: Clinton 45%, Trump 27% (Clinton +18) n=11
Greek: Clinton 47%, Trump 12% (Clinton +35) n=17
Russian: Clinton 67%, Trump 29% (Clinton +38) n=21

Great find, thx.

I think there was no subsample for Austrian ancestry (there are only 1 million Americans with Austrian ancestry).

But I guess they would not vote that different than the Germans.

PS: Most Austrians who migrated to the US settled in Wisconsin btw. It is the state with the highest Austrian ancestry.

BuzzFeed allowed volunteered responses, and 5 people gave "Austrian." 3 were from New York, 1 from Massachusetts, and 1 from California. They all said Clinton, interestingly.

  The huge Russian spread for Clinton probably due to the big amount of Jews in that group.  Would like to see difference between German ancestry by Protestant vs Catholic.

Good insight on the Russian-Americans. Here's their religious breakdown:
Jewish: 14
Atheist: 2
Nothing in particular: 2
Muslim: 1
Protestant: 1
Something else: 1
Orthodox: 0

From BuzzFeed raw data:

German-American Protestants: 28% Clinton, 55% Trump (Trump +27) n=179
German-American Catholics: 34% Clinton, 54% Trump (Trump +20) n=82
