Lots of issues.

Lots of media attention. Lots of literature mailed, and robo calls to vote and not to vote.

Who will win?

Do you want to know who will win or who I vote for? They are not one and the same Smile

I want to know who Imamothers think will win. One vote is one vote. Winning is winning.

Have any Chassidishe or RW schools sent out fliers endorsing Oliver Rosenberg?

Personally Israel counts higher to me than the lifestyle any candidate chooses and I think Mr Rosenberg will be better for Israel.

Nadler is the incumbent with name recognition, endorsements, and lots more money he spent on advertising. It will be a very low turnout primary, so I'd assume he'll prevail.

What I love most with these elections is that the candidates suddenly become Reb Eliezer Rozenberg..... and we are literally forced to vote for an openly gay candidate.

Whether the candidate is gay himself or not, any Democratic politician has to be as pro-gay as he can be, if he wants to get elected in NYC. I assume Nadler voted pro-gay for years. So to me, I felt its time for Nadler to say goodbye because of his Iran vote, endangering Israel. But the Manhattan's West Siders decided this election and "pro-Iran being a nuclear power and Israel is now endangered Nadler" is in. Rolling Eyes

I voted for Nadler. Among other issues, Rosenberg is not exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer.

So Ive heard as well, but the thought of even the slightest degree of increased danger to Israel sickens me, and now Israel is definitely in greater danger, thanks to Nadler's and others' votes. Why say Thank You to him with a vote?

Omg! So cringeworthy! I can't believe he actually attributed that quote to Hamilton! Maybe a joke?

True. Unfortunately there was no one else running.

Schools send home literature singing the praises of one of the candidates, urging the parents to vote for that candidate.

I live in Israel and don't know who these people are but last week's Mishpacha had 2 ads: one pro-Rosenberg and one anti-Nadler
