More Jewish Americans Approve of NYC Mayor Mamdani than Israeli PM Netanyahu, Poll Finds

The survey found 38% say the United States is too supportive of Israel and 30% call Israel’s Gaza actions genocide.

  • On Tuesday, an Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll revealed 44% of American Jews view New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani favorably, compared with just 32% who approve of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
  • Younger and more liberal Jews are increasingly disenchanted with the Israeli government and the war in Gaza, driving these results. Mamdani has been a strident critic of Israel throughout his political career, aligning with these shifting views.
  • Data shows 59% of Jewish respondents view Netanyahu negatively, while 39% view the mayor unfavorably. Additionally, 30% of Jews say Israel's actions in Gaza amount to genocide, while 38% feel the United States is "too supportive" of Israel.
  • Americans overall disapprove of Mamdani by a 28% to 27% margin, the poll found. Netanyahu is somewhat less unpopular with Americans than with Jewish voters, holding a-18% approval rating.
  • The survey also found that 74% of Jewish respondents disapprove of how Donald Trump handled the economy, and 73% disapprove of his handling of Iran, while a strong majority of Jewish adults view Donald Trump unfavorably at 70%.
