Welcome to the Jewish Voters Resource Center (JVRC).

JVRC is a 501(c)(3) created in 2025 to serve as a non-partisan trusted resource for data on the Jewish electorate and issues of importance to Jewish voters.

Stay tuned and check this page for updates on our work.
JVRC also assessed the methodology of various public surveys of Jewish voters and explained why different surveys often report different results in the Jewish vote.

Here’s what we found:
September 9, 2025 at 1:58 PM
Half of American Jews believe Trump is antisemitic, and they believe his administration’s actions increase antisemitism.
September 9, 2025 at 1:54 PM
While Jewish voters view antisemitism as a very serious problem, older generations are much more concerned about antisemitism than younger generations.

This generational divide includes concerns about antisemitism on college campuses.

JVRC’s new study includes a groundbreaking analysis of Jewish voter turnout – the first time that Jewish voter turnout has been analyzed using methodologically sound estimates.

Our findings (🧵):
September 9, 2025 at 1:45 PM
At the same time, Orthodox Jews – who compose only about 9% of the Jewish American population – have shifted noticeably toward Republicans.

The most dramatic shift started in 2020.
September 9, 2025 at 1:35 PM
KEY FINDING: In 2024, non-Orthodox Jewish voters supported Democrats at a higher rate than in the 2012 and 2016 elections. Orthodox Jewish voters are roughly 9% of the Jewish electorate.

New from JVRC’s 2024 Jewish vote analysis: Kamala Harris’s 71 percent vote share was nearly identical to Democratic performances in the 2012 (70 percent) and 2016 (70 percent) presidential elections.
September 9, 2025 at 1:24 PM
The Jewish vote is driven by three core factors:
- Strong identification with the Democratic Party.
- Strong opposition to the Republican Party and its leaders, both before and during Trump.
- Political beliefs, values, and issue priorities of most Jews align with the Democrats.

JVRC’s comprehensive analysis of Jewish voter behavior draws on data going back to the 2012 election across denominations, analyzes turnout trends, measures shifting attitudes on Israel and antisemitism, and incorporates qualitative findings from focus groups.

Our conclusions:
