(VINnews) — A stunning new poll shows that President Donald Trump has a substantial lead over President Biden, among Jews in New York State.

Although Jewish voters traditionally lean overwhelmingly Democrat (at least secular Jews), the new Siena College poll shows Trump with a 9-point lead over Biden among Jews in NY, the state with the nation’s largest Jewish population.

The poll released Tuesday, and highlighted on Newsmax, showed Trump holds a strong 53%-44% lead over Biden among New York’s Jewish voters in a two-way race, and a 46%-38% lead in a four-way race that includes independents Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Cornel West.

Historically, Jewish voters have swung in favor of Democrat candidates, although the tides may be shifting, especially in light of recent events.

In 2016, Hillary Clinton won 71% of the Jewish vote to Trump’s 24%, and in 2020, Biden won 68% to Trump’s 30% according to the Jewish Virtual Library.

The support for Trump could be attributed to an massive surge in antisemitism since the Hamas terror attack on Oct. 7, and the Biden administration’s sometimes hostile relations toward Israel.

The Siena poll also showed Trump narrowing the gap with Biden among all voters in New York to 12 percentage points (48%-36%) in a two-way race and 10 percentage points (42%-32%) in a four-way race.

The poll surveyed 806 registered voters in New York, 8% of whom were Jewish, from Feb. 12-14, and has a margin of error of okus or minus 4.2 percentage points.

(It should be noted that the poll appears to have sampled less than 70 Jews, and as such, the results may be somewhat skewed.)

“shock”? the only shock here is that it took some jews so long to realize that democrats are bad for us, and voting for them won’t fix that.

Sampled 70 Jews?? How is that even a poll?? And what type of Jews were these? Where are they from? I can sample 200 Jews right now and get 100% trump. Easily. Boringly easy.

This poll is a complete waste of time, probably as much as any other poll. The only one that really makes a difference is the one that takes place on election day. Any polling that takes place before is garbage.

Next time, open with, not close with, this, so I don’t waste time. “It should be noted that the poll appears to have sampled less than 70 Jews, and as such, the results may be somewhat skewed”

I’ll believe it when it happens. Shocking how so many Jews worship the DevilRat Donkey idol. This is constantly brought up on radio and non Jewish hosts always ask and are perplexed by it. Shameful and disgusting.

All Jews must vote for Trump. He moved the capital to Jerusalem, he accomplished the Abraham Accords. Biden is controlled by Obama, who as we all knows hates Israel. Am Yisroel Chai.

Any report that polls “Jews” is inherently inaccurate because they don’t know what the heck a Jew even is.

If the Republicans win and start cutting back on social welfare benefits, many in frum communities will suffer. Think of those places in upstate NY where the majority of population is receiving benefits.

Jews are smart. Jews would never vote for an egotistical maniac who hawks sneakers and trading cards and has been convicted of fraud and an indecent attack on a woman. Jews would never vote for a man who encouraged a riot on J6, refused the peaceful transfer of power, and pressured a sitting AG to “find him votes.” Smart Jews would never vote for a man who dined with rabid antisemites like Kanye and Fuentes at his private residence and never apologized, but I guess you could find 35 dumb Jews out of 70.
