In local politics, the Orthodox and Hasidim are still willing to vote for Democrats, which may explain why there isn't really much of a base for Jewish GOPers. Borough Park is represented by a ConservaDem, IIRC.

It would be interesting to do the "types" of Jewish voter for NYC neighborhoods (and other places).  Obviously the immigrant and religious Jews are in Brooklyn and Queens - (i.e. Brighton Beach for Russian Jews, Borough Park and Williamsburg for Hasidic Jews, etc.)  Manhattan would be dominated by the "urban elite."  Though there's several "red diaper" or socialist Jews as well - probably more on the Upper West Side than anywhere else, though they'd be outnumbered by the "urban elite liberal types.  Others and more modern-day "radical chic" would be found in Lower Manhattan and Brownstone Brooklyn. 

Doesn't Gravesend have a substantial Sephardic community, or am I misremembering things?
