    The top 2 Reshaim Arurim by polls are no good choices for us. One of them proved it while in office, the other claims he’ll be even worse.
    Bill deBlasio won with 722K votes. We can’t organize half a million frum votes from all five boroughs for Sliwa? Especially when it’s a sakana for NYC??

    Staten Island has been talking for decades about making their city. It’s about time frum NYC neighborhoods leave NYC to make a city together with Staten Island. Call it “Verazanno” (or whatver name works).

    So many Jewish fools. The way the Mamzer is coming in is the way the Communists and the Nazis came in. Remember when Mamzer wins it was the Satmar and their Rebbes who supported his rise. The Askanim met the Mamzer 3x, requesting government freebies for their bloc vote. No other Chasidic group support their demonstrations against Israel, particularly today after so many Israeli children have lost their fathers who protected the people of Israel including the Satmar, who sit on their behinds.

    a vote for Sliwa is a vote for Mamzeri who’s not allowed to win
    b’Ezras Hashem NYC will win and Mamzeri will be eliminated
