3 percent.At the Democratic National Convention in August, Harris spoke in support of Palestinian statehood and addressed the ongoing war in Gaza and described the loss of lives as 'devastating.'The Forward/CHIP50 poll follows data that showed an increase in antisemitism had led to some Jewish voters being more inclined to vote Republican in November, one year on from the October 7 Hamas attack on Israel, and the ensuing conflict.
