Among the Jews? Roger L. Simon has some interesting gossip:
Roger L. Simon: Bush Not "Down and Out in Beverly Hills"
As most have heard, the current estimates of Jewish support for Bush in the election were 25%, up from 19% in 2000. This may be a serious underestimate. The following is only preliminary (more stats are being broken down) but it comes from ... of all places... BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA - perhaps the most Jewish incorporated city in the state and also the home of many of Hollywood's supposedly left/liberal personalities (as well as numerous Iranian Jews who would tilt to Bush). Bush's support in Beverly Hills was up 22 percentage points (more than double) from 2000. Caveat: these stats are still unofficial but they are obviously very significant.
Here is the breakdown for Beverly Hills:
2004 UNOFFICIAL
BUSH 42.38% KERRY 56.98% OTHER .64%
2000 OFFICIAL
BUSH 20.47% GORE 76.51% OTHER 3.02%
Gay support was also up 8% in West Hollywood according to this unofficial report.
