From Josh on PFP: Major Findings: I. A plurality of Jewish voters would consider someone else for President. According to the 2008 exit polls, Barack Obama won 78% to 21% among Jewish voters. Now, in the second year of Obama’s presidency, only 42% of voters would re-elect him, while the plurality (46%) would consider voting for someone else. Key voter segments including, Orthodox/Hasidic voters, Conservative voters, voters who have friends and family in Israel and voters who have been to Israel, are more likely to consider someone else. There is clearly a voter difference depending upon their religious beliefs and their ties to Israel. II. A significant portion of Jewish voters disapprove of the President’s handling of relations with Israel. Nearly four in ten Jewish voters (39%) disapprove of the job Barack Obama is doing handling America’s relations with Israel. This rating is not good for a group of voters who are 59% Democratic to only 16% Republican. Again, the same relation exists for key Jewish voters with ties to Israel. III. Jewish voters do not support President Obama’s plan to recognize a Palestinian state. The majority of voters (52%) disapproves of the Obama Administration supporting a plan to recognize a Palestinian state within two years. The majority of voters (64%) says that Jerusalem should remain the undivided capital of Israel, while only 13% say that the United States should force Israel to give up parts of Jerusalem to the Palestinians. Six in ten voters (62%) say that the Palestinians would continue their campaign of terror to destroy Israel if they were given a Palestinian state, while only 19% say they would live peacefully with Israel. More than seven in ten voters (73%) say Israel is right to insist upon the Palestinians accepting Israel’s right to exist as a Jewish state before there are any negotiations about a Palestinian state.
