If you are a “woke” Democrat, I guess you’ll keep reelecting Ms. Clarke, who has voted anti-Israel numerous times. (Watch what she has DONE, not what she says out of the other side of her mouth at photo ops with Jewish leaders!)

But IMO, we NEED more pro-Israel and conservative people, like Raitport, in Congress!

Well…

…you should vote for the non-Jewish version of Trump, whose policies have been good for the country and good for Jews (and whose opponent is bad for both). Then you should vote for a fellow Jew who supports our causes locally and internationally, unlike Clarke who, for example, supports the “two-state solution” that has been tried before and which led to increased deaths, r”l.

Why does he not campaign at all? We haven’t seen any campaign information whatsoever. I would love to vote for him but he doesn’t seem to take this seriously.

He takes it very seriously, but....

Unfortunately he doesn’t have the financial backing that some of his opponents have. Vote with your head. If you want to know and understand his positions, you can contact him directly. He will be happy to tell you.

It is absolutely absurd that our community “activists” are endorsing Yvette Clarke over a Yid from our community…

even against anyone , she should never be endorsed. anyone voting blue, should be kicked out of the community

What’s the point of running if there is a zero chance of winning?
It could backfire, as the elected officials see that we not only don’t support them, we put up an opponent.

Backfire? It’s the same story every election. Our “community leaders” tell us to vote for the democrats so they can see that they have our support, yet they don’t do squat for our community in return.

On the contrary

It tells them that they need to work for our votes, not take them for granted.
