Who are you going to vote for?
and if you can’t vote yet who would you vote for?
How could anyone consider someone who wears a yarmulka while parading in the toeiva parade while proudly waving the toeiva rainbow flag??

Who are you going to vote for?
and if you can’t vote yet who would you vote for?
How about “If you lived in their district, who whould you vote for?” Some of us feel left out by the OP 🙁
Certainly Bob Turner – a true mentsch.
Weprin, I have heard him speak many times. He goes to shul regularly and sends his kids to Yeshiva.
His views are basically similar to mine. People are only voting against him because of him being a democrat and his support for gay marriage
I’m voting for Turner main reason being is he’s a republican.
how can u vote for a democrat these days? we need republicans against obama!!!! as long as they r decent human beings- which turner certainly seems to be- we should be voting them in.
Weprin, because he’s a Democrat.
Turner winning would be a big boosha for the President that is reason enough.
I live in NY-17, not NY-09, so I don’t get a vote in this election. But I’d vote for Weprin. Those who claim to support Israel need to think about how the US will be able to help Israel in the future if it doesn’t have much of a military any more, which is what will happen if the Tea Party-inspired budget cut triggers take effect. Turner seems clueless about this problem. He also won’t commit to preserving Medicare.
Rav Yisroel Belsky, Rav Yisroel P. Gornish, Rav Simcha Bunim Cohen, Rav Shmuel Kamenetsky, Rav Avrohom Yaakov Nelkenbaum, Rav Hershel Zolty, Rav Grainom Lazewnik, Rav Eliyahu Brog, Rav Chaim Benoliel, Rav Max Maslaton, Rav Yaakov Yisroel Rubin, Rav Shlomo Stern, Rav Yosef Eisen, Rav Yitzchok M. Landau, Rav Rahamim Harary, Rav Chaim Krauss, Rav Yosef Leifer, Rav Shmuel Friedler, Rav Mechel Rosenbaum, Rav Pinchos M. Twerky, and another dozen or so rabbonim signed a letter stating that it is forbidden to vote or campaign for Democrat David Weprin.
The letter says:
[forbidden according to Torah law]
There’s an image of it on matzav’s home page.
“People are only voting against him because of him being a democrat and his support for gay marriage “
Those two reasons are good enough to convince me. (but I don’t live in NY9 so my opinion dosen’t count).
“see i’ve only been in NY for a month and I’m already acting like a NYer”
I remember you saying you have an hard time a adjust to NY, hope you got past that.
🙁 Hope things get better for you realy soon. (aldough that might mean seeing you less in the CR…)
Obama is the one who made military cuts.
I’m going to write my name as a write-in candidate.
The Wolf
Weprin should have promised funding to yeshivos. Then all the Rabbis would have endorsed him.
