The depraved vandals painted a swastika and the number 187, the California penal code for murder, which according to the Zeldin campaign “has been universally adopted as a common death threat.”

The sign was located on a lawn in Huntington, Long Island, Zeldin’s hometown. He is the frontrunner Republican in the race for governor, and primaries are scheduled for this Tuesday.

Suffolk County police are looking for the vandals.

I once heard a quote that I forgot the originator of – “Halacha b’yadu’a Esav soneh l’Yaakov, but nowadays we hold that the goyim shouldn’t be so frum.” Well, it sounds like we’ve got a farfrimter.

Though it is not clear who did this, it is clear that language used in election campaigns have become hateful and justifying of Sinas chinum.

Instead of a contest between citizens of the same nation, it has led to no longer recognizing that we share a world, a nation, a state and a community and a respect for each other as humans – no matter the results of the election.

A single sign defaced in Long Island deserves mention on VIN?
