Better the devil you know than the devil you don't?
If you are certain someone is evil then you should vote for them over the one who you are not certain.. that is some sound logic

In fairness, frum media has been openly hostile to Dems. I don't blame her for not doing interviews with them.

And she's been campaigning plenty in frum communities. So she didn't post it to Twitter? That's not where to target frum voters anyway.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not supporting her, but criticisms should be fair.

They wouldn't show a picture of her, but if they did, they would make her look orange.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Lol, Just because I criticized your patronizing bigotry in the OP doesn't mean it's because I support Hochul. Maybe, just maybe, it's because I didn't like what you wrote and how you wrote it - and also don't support Hochul. Not everything is black and white. In the same way, people can vote for Zeldin and still criticize the things about him that deserve criticism without turning him into some sort of tzadik and paragon of virtue.

As for my thoughts on Hochul, she hasn't done or said anything to make me feel like she had any issue with the way Cuomo ran things with her as second in command, and my thoughts about him are quite oft-stated on this forum. Just yesterday a law was passed to give her administration too much power in regard to going back to masking kids. Just for that she isn't getting my vote.

As for Zeldin, like Biobook, I don't know that as governor he will be able to do all that much to help yeshivahs, maybe he can, I just don't know. But overall, in the areas of most concern for me - personal safety, yeshivah education, government overreach due to covid and the like, I'd much quicker roll the dice with him than anyone else on the ballot.

Beg? It would be stupid for any politician to take anything for granted. Just ask HRC.

BTW, far from being secretive, I'm not anonymous on here, and I'm actually willing to put my name behind things. If you have any interest in where my super secret support lies, feel free to check my Twitter feed as well. https://twitter.com/Squilled. Though in all transparency (sorrynotsorry), there's not usually much in the way of politics.
