I had no idea there were that many Jews in such places as Madera, Kern, Fresno, Kings.

Surprises me, too. Perhaps it's like how there are no parts of New Jersey or Connecticut where there isn't at least a small number of Jews... some people will always diffuse out from the main urban centers. Las Vegas has a relatively large Jewish population, including the mayor and congresswoman.

Also, Jews vote in higher percentages than the general population, especially in places with huge numbers of non-citizens and people living in poverty like the Central Valley.


I think that could be so. I once read that Fresno has 2,000-2,500 or so Jews (which is fairly reasonable for a 2% electorate factoring out the non-voters), but of course they seem to have blended in fairly well. I lived where they likely would have lived and only encountered 2 or 3 that had said they were in past ten years.

Well per OC, the Jewish chameleon theory in California anyway is still holding more or less, which surprises me.

OC Jews seem to be the type that may have been apart of the national Jewish GOP trend since 1992 (10% to 25%).

Maybe the real test will come when San Diego County comes in.
