John,
I want you to see the memo I sent today to RJC Leaders, with
information about the historic levels of Jewish support that President
Trump received yesterday.

TO: RJC Leaders
FROM: Matt Brooks
RE: RJC Exit Poll Shows MAJOR Win for Trump Among Jewish
Voters
The RJC worked with leading pollsters at Basswood Research and
McLaughlin & Associates to conduct a national exit poll of 600
registered general election voters who describe themselves as Jewish.
The poll shows that President Donald Trump won 30.5%
of the Jewish vote this year, up 6 points from his 24% share of the
Jewish vote in 2016. It is the highest percentage for any Republican
presidential candidate since 1988.
In Florida, where the RJC invested over $5 million targeting Jewish
voters, and in which we had the most sophisticated outreach ever
undertaken in the Jewish community, the New York Times/AP poll shows
that the Jewish vote outperformed the national numbers, with
41% of the Jewish vote going to President Trump, an
historic record. There is no doubt that in this election, when Donald
Trump won in the key battleground state of Florida by fewer than three
points, the Jewish vote was critical to his victory.
Below are links to: An analysis of the methodology and findings of
the exit poll by the pollsters who conducted it; the top line of the
poll; the crosstabs of the poll; and the NY Times article on the
Florida poll conducted by the AP.
I think we can all be very proud of this outcome and the important
role the RJC had in helping the President.
