Obama's support among Jewish voters in the state of New York has dropped 22 percentage points in only a month

The poll, conducted by Siena College, finds that currently Obama has the support of 51% of Jewish voters, while 43% are opposed to him. Five percent are undecided. That means, Obama's lead among Jewish voters is at 8 percentage points. Previously, in Siena's May 2012 poll, Obama had the support of 62% of Jewish New Yorkers, while 32% opposed him. That means, last month, Obama's lead among this group of voters was at a strong 30 percentage points. Additionally, Jewish voters in New York overwhelmingly believe that America is headed in the wrong direction as opposed to the right track, by a margin of 62% to 31%. Only 13% of Jewish New Yorkers said that they are better off now, under Obama, while 41% said that they are doing worse. Forty-five percent said that they're doing the same.
