PRINCETON, NJ – Barack Obama is faring better than might be expected among Jewish voters, beating John McCain in Gallup Poll Daily general-election matchups and trailing Hillary Clinton only slightly in Jewish Democrats’ preferences for the Democratic nomination.

This is according to an aggregate of Gallup Poll Daily tracking from April 1-30, including interviews with close to 800 Jewish voters, and nearly 600 Jewish Democratic voters.

Furthermore, Gallup Poll Daily tracking finds no recent decline in the percentage of Jewish Democrats favoring Obama for the Democratic presidential nomination. Jewish Democrats continue to favor Clinton, but by only a slim margin over Obama — 50% to 43% in April, compared with 51% to 41% in March.

42%, he will get about 65%-70% that voted for Hillary. Add that with the 30-40% of new voters he has brought into the party (mainly the youth vote that no one ever gets) and he holds a strong hand against McCain. If Hillary gets on the trail campaigning with Barack in the rust belt the numbers will be higher.

Believe it or not he gets more uneducated white voters in the south than in the north, go figure.

As I said on Feb. 5th, in the northeast and rustbelt, the dumb white folk vote democratic, here they vote Republican.
