The following statement was issued by Rabbi Chaim Dovid Zwiebel, executive vice president of Agudath Israel of America:

Today is Primary Day in New York State. There are primary races across the state that will determine the respective parties’ nominees for various legislative and judicial seats in the upcoming November election. Our community has a great stake in many of these races, and it is important that we make our voices heard.

Polls are open until 9:00 tonight. Please make every effort to go out and vote!
