So it seems that Israeli Americans are not as sick and demented as American Jews. According to a recent exit poll in Israel it seems that Mitt Romney rained on Obamas parade with much malace.
Mitt Romney = 85% of the vote
Hussein Obama = 14% of the voteThat is a compete FAIL for Obama.... I suspect that many American Jews are going to vote against this useless piece of drek who currently occupies the White House. Hopefully he will be bidding Adieu to the office very, very soon. Then we will Schmeckle-Smack the closest democrat...
From IsraelMatzav :
http://www.israelmatzav.blogspot.com/2012/11/breaking-us-citizens-in-israel-vote-85.html I was invited to this press conference, but could not make it because of another commitment.
According to my sources, iVoteIsrael held a press conference today, at which they announced that 85%(!!!!) of the ballots cast by American citizens residing in Israel for the US elections went to Mitt Romney. 85%!!!!!
More information to follow when I have it.
UPDATE 5:46 PM
It should be noted that according to official statistics, there are over 163,000 American voters in Israel (and there are actually probably more).
UPDATE 5:48 PM
There were 80,000 votes cast from Israel in the US Presidential election.
UPDATE 6:11 PM
I should probably clarify that the poll was based upon an exit sample of 1,572 voters of the 80,000 who voted, with a margin of error of +/- 2.5%
Here's some more info.
Romney beat Obama by a wide margin in Florida and Ohio, 84.8% to 15.1% in Florida , and 85.8% to 18.1% in Ohio. (I have no idea why the numbers in Ohio add up to more than 100% - I was just given the numbers).
I suspect that the sample sizes in many states other than New York (which statistically has over 40% of the eligible voters) might be too small to be statistically meaningful.
When asked, “What is the most important issue to you in these elections?” 11.2% said jobs and the (US) economy, 2.7% said healthcare, 11.2% said Iran, 0.9% said taxation, 61.3% said Israel-related issues, and 10% said "other."
