Muh Italians is not a sufficient explanation here. The Italian-American political tradition is somewhat more Republican than other "white ethnic" groups but not to an extent that explains 70-30 Republican blowouts. I'm Italian-American as well and very few people in my extended family have the alleged "vote for a Democrat? FUHGEDDABOUDIT!" state of mind. I suspect in Staten Island's case a lot of it has to do with local identity over-against the other boroughs.
