Ubiquitin: You may have a point, but there’s a two party system in other places, such as the UK (in practice, at least), and although frum yidden also often identify more strongly with one party than another, they still retain a healthy skepticism, and tend to vote based on a nuanced view of the various policies than simple partisanship.

And that means that on issues that are dissociated from religion, such as gun control, people do not blindly follow ‘their’ party. And the party never takes their support for granted, which means they serve their interests better. Basically, I expect frum yidden to be less misguided and more sensible in their political ideals than simple blind partisanship, as is the case elsewhere, but perhaps I am simply giving them too much credit.

Joseph: I appreciate your approval. And you are absolutely right. The frum interest groups and NGOs generally do an excellent job of working in a non-partisan fashion.
