From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republican_Jewish_Coalition

In 1996, Senator Bob Dole (R) won 16% of the Jewish vote.
In 2000, George W. Bush (R) won 19% of the Jewish vote (even though Senator Joe Lieberman was selected as the Democrats' Vice-Presidential candidate)
In 2004, preliminary results indicate President George W. Bush (R) received likely support of 25%.[4]
In 2008, exit polls showed that John McCain received 21% of the Jewish vote.[5][6]
