From "The Twelve Tribes of American Politics"

Jews

A small but politically active group.  While representing only 1.9% of voting-age population, Jewish-Americans represent  3.0% of those Americans who vote.  21% call themselves Republicans, 11% call themselves, Independents and 68% call themselves Democrats.

Political Trend: A strong Democratic group, though Bush has tried to break the Democratic lock on Jewish voters.

This group puts foreign policy first; 75% of Jews say the U.S. should support Israel over the Palestinians--a figure comparable to the Religious Right--and also have moderate to conservative positions on other foreign policy matters. Liberal on economics and especially social issues...

So who will Jewish-Americans be voting for?  Who do you see soliciting the Jewish-American vote?
