When there is racial tension on our streets (riots over police etc) as is inevitable, who will she “serve and protect”?

PATTERSON IS BAD FOR OUR COMMUNITY! VOTE GEOFFREY DAVIS!

Shirley Patterson was endorsed by the UFT who are working against our yeshivas and private schools, the ONLY candidate who promised to help the yeshivas is Geoffrey Davis who committed himself to fight for the Education Investment Tax Credit for private schools. GO GEOFFREY DAVIS!

VOTE GEOFFREY DAVIS!

Menachem Raitport doesn’t stand a chance, between the other 3 candidates.
GEOFFREY DAVIS is the only one who committed to fight for the Education Investment Tax Credit Bill that will help our yeshivas.
GEOFFREY DAVIS is the only one who was working together with the Jewish community in the past and has a good relationship with the Jewish community for the past decades.

GEOFFREY DAVIS was endorsed by Assemblyman Dov Hikind.

A vote for Menachem Raitport is a waste of a vote, from the other 3 candidates GEOFFREY DAVIS is the best for our community. VOTE GEOFFREY DAVIS!!!

Once in a lifetime election.

Ch Resident she will be in for years while raitport even is a miracle happens he is out in a years

EVERY CH Community Leader has endorsed Mendy Raitport

For the first time in a very long time EVER SINGLE CH COMMUNITY LEADER, EVERY ROV, EVERY FACTION has come out in SUPPORT OF MENDY RAITPORT. This is historic. Only a few individuals in NO LEADERSHIP POSITIONS have endorsed other candidates as it offers them personal benefits. WE MUST ALL VOTE MENDY RAITPORT.

Very well written and Mrs Patterson definitely has the most experience from between the candidates. That said its understandably that we want our (Raitport) to win. However logic needs to prevail. Raitport simply doesn’t have the votes and his campaign team hasn’t shown a lot of street smarts. Even if Raitport does pull off a miracle and wins what then? in 18 months will be another election which he will most likely lose. The way for our community to have political power and IY’H be able to elect one of our own is to a) Register to vote. b) Show… Read more »
