Does anyone have voting results for more religious suburbs like the Five Towns and Teaneck and suburbs with large (secular) Jewish populations like Scarsdale and Chappaqua?

Obama won Scarsdale 58.8 - 40.1 and Teaneck 71.9 - 27.3. Keep in mind that Scarsdale is very high-income and Teaneck is 28% black (in the 2010 census), so religiosity is not necessarily the main difference for the towns as a whole.

Chappaqua is not its own municipality but a significant part of the Town of New Castle, which voted Obama 62.0 - 36.7. The Five Towns are in the Town of Hempstead which as a whole voted Obama 56.2 - 42.7, but this doesn't really tell us anything about your question since Hempstead is over 750,000 people and mostly outside the area in question. I don't know whether anyone on the forum has a more specific breakdown.
