Most American Jews are Ashkenazi and Ashkenazi Jews in Israel lean left too. The truth is Zionism/being religious/nationalist was never the primary marker of being a Jew, and the sort of right-wing religious nationalism which defines Israel today is pretty alien to most Ashkenazi Jews. Jews prior to the founding of Israel, even many Jews in Israel from the start, had a very large segment who were mostly secular and politically left-wing/socialist. Many were involved in communist movements in Europe. So there's just a long history of being left-wing, which I think sort of makes sense given Jewish history.
