## Key points

- Exit polls did not ask Jewish voters about the Iran war.
- Earlier polling found 60% of American Jews opposed it.
- The war was a major or crucial factor for 74% of voters.

## Summary

A review of publicly available exit polls found that none asked Jewish voters whether they supported the Iran war, despite pre-election polling showing opposition among American Jews. The omission leaves unclear whether the conflict influenced Jewish voters’ choices, at a time when voters’ views of President Donald Trump’s handling of the war were a factor in Democratic gains.

A J Street poll in March found 60% of American Jews opposed the war and 77% did not think Trump had a clear plan. Exit polls by NBC News and CNN found 68% of Jewish voters backed Democrats and 31% Republicans; Jewish voters made up 3% of the religious demographics surveyed. Overall, 74% of voters said the war was a crucial or major factor in their vote, and 62% of those voters supported Democrats.
