Ahah, pacific island voting patterns are very interesting. Hawaii is actually an abberation among the Pacific Islands for not being very religious (due to many many more larger Japanese/Chinese).

The Pacific Islands are some of the most religious places on Earth. For example, the Northern Marianna Islands has no Democrats in its lower house and one Democrat in its upper house.

Incidentally, koenkai, your name for your state is rather whimsical. I like it. Am I correct in assuming that this 'Hourai' is 蓬莱?

Hey, it was the first thing that came to mind. Tongue

Well, Jews are hardly a homogenous voting bloc. Russian Jews and Orthodox Jews (who I assume pushed McCain over the top) vote very differently from Jews whose families came over in the 1880's.
