Rabbi Aryeh Deri is working to enlist support for the mayoral campaign of Rabbi Meir Porush.

Deri intended to run in the Jerusalem mayoral race but the courts decided his ‘moral turpitude’ stain does not permit him from reentering the political arena at this time.

Deri is expected to use his expertise to assist Porush in dealing with the secular media, which Porush campaign officials believe are seeking to blemish the candidate.
