Trump edges ahead of Kamala Harris with surprising group in this deep blue state | 6 Aug 2024 | Donald Trump has taken a surprising lead among Jewish voters in deep blue New York, a new poll found. The Republican gained support from 50 percent of likely Jewish voters in the state, compared to 49 percent who opted for Kamala Harris, according to a Siena Research Institute poll. Harris’s results show a slip among the electorate group since Joe Biden stepped aside in the presidential race, who previously led Trump among New York’s Jewish population 52 percent to 46 percent in June.
