Despite multiple calls to the National Jewish Democratic Coalition and the Republican Jewish Coalition yesterday and Monday, I couldn’t find stats, or any information, on young Jewish voter enthusiasm this election cycle.

The Shin Bet: OMG that US professor is a terrorist!!! Oh, one sec, wait… Our bad. Sorry, ma’am. [Tikkun Olam]
