1. I can't remember where I saw it

but in 2000, they voted overwhelmingly for Bush. In '04, they went for Kerry, mostly because of Iraq and his whole Middle East philosophy.
On edit--run a search in Newsweek. There's a Middle Eastern reporter that writes for them--last name something like Farouk? I believe he had those stats.

3. highest % according to reports

as a voting bloc % wise they gave Kerry the most support, higher than african-americans for kerry & evangelicals for his opponent:
