Eric Trump apparently posted then deleted a tweet with his (ETA: NY) ballot.

I am still undecided, but will vote DJT upon the recommendation of Rav Kamenetsky, as seen on Matzav, but I confirmed that this is his position  as well.

He told me that too (to be exact, he said he doesn't see him as being as bad as Clinton). That being said; I'm sitting this one out.

There was a story with Justin Timberlake doing the same, and the police basically said obviously we're not going to waste our limited time and resources on something like this.

Nor will (or probably should) anything happen to Trump. It's just not great optics to obliviously violate a law while trying to promote your cause.

I recall Sean Hannity doing it last time around too, posted a ballot pic and promptly deleting it

Just outta curiosity, did anyone here do just that? Ask their Rav or truster leader who to vote for?

R Yeruchem Olshin said to vote for Trump based on that both Dovid Hamelech and Shaul Hamelech were חוטא yet only Shaul lost the מלוכה and not Dovid, he explained the difference is that Shaul was חוטא with the מלוכה and thus lost it but Dovid was his own private חטא
Thus Trump & Hillary  were both "חוטא" however only hilliary was חוטא with the "מלוכה" therefore we should vote for Trump

The Democrats did an excellent job getting out the Latino vote. They are turning out in droves all over the country, but most importantly FL and NC. Even without the biased media etc. the Dems are a lot better at this game.

Trump needs to win FL, NC, OH, and then on top of that he needs to win a blue state like PA, WI or NH.

To put this in perspective, if this were a game of chess, Clinton has a king, two knights and a rook, and Trump has a king and a pawn halfway across the board.

Check mate.

What baffles me is that I recall the democrats making the same argument in defense of Bill Clinton and all the rabbis (that I knew) argued that the leader ofn our country sets the tone for morality. Boy have times changed!

Or perhaps....

There's no stirah. It's 100% true that it has an effect, but that was in a vacuum, empirically speaking. Now there is a binary (thanks, exgingi) choice.

They were going Ape when it was Bill. Not saying whether its worse than than corruption but I find it funny to  defend even in comparison.

Somewhere deep in a dark blue state I cast my dark red vote for the dark orange candidate.

AFAIK, nobody's defending it. Also, let's not forget that HRC is not exactly ...נקי בדברים אלו... ודי בזה

[Work-for-ur-muny]

This is actually the first time that I'm so excited for an election. No matter who loses I will be happy.
