Is there a Polish American vote?

[King of Kensington]

The 3 "blue wall" states that fell in 2016 - Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin - have sizeable Polish American populations.  So one could argue Polish Americans helped put Trump in the White House.

There's a few "very ethnic" suburbs like Cheektowaga and Parma.  Chicago has a lot of Polish Americans, but the Polish enclaves are filled with more recent immigrants.

Is there a detectable Polish American vote to speak of?

Heavily Polish American Cheektowaga NY went 54-44 D.

Norwood Park Township IL, which has many Polish immigrants, went 52-46 R.

Polish immigrants (in the 80s/90s) mostly went to Chicago and NY/NJ.

Luzerne I believe is the only plurality-Polish county in the US.

Polish is usually dominant among the Slavic/Eastern European ancestries (i.e. in Chicago, Detroit and Buffalo).  But in Cleveland while Polish is the largest group they're less dominant (same is true in Pittsburgh).

A tale of two suburbs (Parma and Shaker Heights):

There was a 10 point swing to Trump in Parma in 2016 (not sure what the result was in 2020).

If accurate, the Polish American vote went R in 2016, D in 2020:

Chicago's Poles seem R as well.  The four Cook County townships that went R are also the most Polish. Norwood Park is about 30% Polish.

Perhaps there's a Polish immigrant/Polish American difference?  The Cook County Polish areas are quite immigrant (or 2nd generation), I'm sure they outnumber the Bill Swerski superfan types.  It seems like third and fourth generation Polish Americans have dispersed to the collar counties or have even left the region entirely.
