Overview

• Jewish voters have traditionally leaned Democratic, but the Republican Jewish Coalition is investing heavily in outreach to shift this dynamic.
• Efforts are focused on five battleground states, with Michigan's Oakland County being a primary target due to its significant Jewish population.
• Despite making up only 2% of Michigan's voters, newly identified Jewish Republican voters could impact the tight race between Trump and Harris.
• Tensions from the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict have influenced Jewish voters, with Republicans generally more supportive of Israel.
• Rising antisemitism and anti-Israel protests in the U.S. have heightened the stakes for Jewish voters in the upcoming election.
