Irish surname, Irish relatives, called Irish-American. Absolutely no indication anywhere she is Jewish. Must be Jewish!

"Whatever recent television or movies might say, however, it is important not to make too much of the Irish American swing to conservatism. White Catholics are still more likely to vote Democrat than white Protestants, and Irish Catholics are more likely to do so than Catholics as a whole. Moreover, there were important regional distinctions in the Irish Catholic vote even in the 1980s. While Irish Catholics in the state of New York and other states swung decisively to Reagan in 1984, their fellow Irish Catholics in Massachusetts did not. Southern New England, the Irish Catholic heartland in America, remains a Democratic stronghold, indeed, it is probably the most thoroughly Democratic region in America." - Timothy J. Meagher, The Columbia Guide to Irish American History (2005)
