  The moral climate of the city we live in, affects the Jewish community as seen many times in the Torah. Mayoral candidate Erick Salgado is the only known candidate in the current New York City mayoral race, committed to safeguarding our moral values. He is opposed to the forced acceptance of Toeiva, which we know normalizes lifestyles that are forbidden (Assur).

Erick Salgado’s campaign needs our votes, our volunteered time and our contribution of funds. Our response needs to be analogous to our response to a charity organization.

It is, therefore, halachically (according to Jewish law) incumbent upon every Jew to assist Mr. Salgado’s campaign in its needs, in order for Erick Salgado to win the mayoral race. Every Jew, registered as a Democrat at the time of the Primary, is obligated to vote for Mr. Salgado.




Through these actions, may we merit the ultimate redemption.
  This psak/endorsement applies regardless of the outcome of the United States Supreme Court decision.

WHY IT’S A MITZVAH TO VOTE FOR

 

Erick Salgado

This year’s unusually complex mayoralty race has, paradoxically, given frum Jews anopportunity to cast a vote for moral values and be counted for K’vod Shamayim.

Alone among all other candidates stands Erick Salgado, a Latino businessman and pastor whose unequivocal supportof traditional societal values has elicited the signed endorsement of 45 Rabbonim, Roshei Yeshiva and Rebbes.

Erick Salgado will receive substantial Latino support in other areas of the city. In Orthodox Jewish communities, votes cast for Salgado will be counted as votes for moral issues. A strong showing will demonstrate that for Torah Jews, moral values count – a highly appropriate outcome in this Holy Day period.

Primary Day is Tuesday September 10,in the middle of Aseres Y’mei T’shuva – a particularly auspicious time to cast a vote for K’vod Shamayim, by voting for Erick Salgado.

 Erick Salgado:
  Is in favor of property tax credits for parents of children in private schools/yeshivas.

Is opposed to government interference in religious practices (e.g. Bris Milah).

Supports the traditional family structure.

Charles J. Hynes for District Attorney (D/C-Brooklyn)

Perhaps the most important race that no one is focused on is the race for District Attorney. Charles “Joe” Hynes is a 20 year incumbent who was gone out of his way to work with the Jewish community. He has incredibly close relationships with our community’s leadership and his fairness has been his hallmark. Mr. Hynes works closely with SAFE, for example. When a community member is arrested for possession of drugs, Mr. Hynes works to get that community member treatment rather than prison. It’s no coincidence that Brooklyn is the safest borough in America. It’s the leadership of Joe Hynes that keeps our community safe. This is one election that WILL be decide in the Democratic Primary, so please make sure to vote to re-elect Charles J. Hynes on Tuesday, September 10th.

WHY THE SEPHARDIC COMMUNITY FEDER ATION IS ENDORSING CHRISTINE QUINN AND JOE LHOTA

The Sephardic Community Federation (SCF) is the umbrella public policy and political advocacy arm of our Community. The primary goal of the SCF is to ensure that our community receives its fair share from government and that we have a seat at the table on all major policy issues in New York. So far, we have had great success. We at SCF support candidates who we believe will serve New York City’s best interests while being the best on important issues to our community including public safety, anti-terrorism, lower taxes, support for business and WhyWe Support Speaker Quinn in the Democratic Primary and Joe Lhota in the Republican Primary for Mayor of New York City:
EXPERIENCE
Christine QuinnSpeaker Quinn was elected to serve as Speaker of the city council in 2006, New York City’s second most powerful elected official, behind the mayor. Speaker Quinn has successfully balanced every single New York City budget since she has been elected. She has refused to raise taxes and is a strong supporter of the NYPD.
Joe LhotaMr. Lhota most recently served as Chairman and CEO of the MTA. He was widely lauded for getting the trains & buses up and running immediately after Super storm Sandy. Joe’s experience in running New York City is vast. He served under Mayor Rudolph Giuliani as Deputy Mayor for Operations as well as New York City’s Budget Director and Commissioner of Finance.
PUBLIC SAFETY
Christine QuinnWe all know that crime is down and many people attribute that to Police Commissioner Kelly. Speaker Quinn is the only Democratic candidate who has pledged to keep Ray Kelly as Police Commissioner. Speaker Quinn has prevented the closure of 20 fire companies in New York City. She has also pledged to increase the number of police officers on our city streets. Simply put, she has the best record of any Democratic candidate of keeping New Yorkers safe.
Joe LhotaAs the Deputy Mayor during 9/11 Joe Lhota knows the importance of security and safety. Joe has pledged to develop new strategies and approaches to maintain and enhance the reduction of crime and continue to keep our City the safest large city in the United States. Joe has also pledged to keep Ray Kelly as Police Commissioner.
STOP, QUESTION & FRISK
Christine Quinn When a NYPD officer reasonably suspects a person is about to commit a crime they can stop, question and if appropriate, frisk that person. Speaker Quinn is the only Democratic candidate for Mayor who within constitutional limits would keep this important crime-fighting tool.
Joe LhotaMr. Lhota has stated repeatedly that he would never “handcuff” the Police Department by altering, reducing or stopping this police tactic.
SUPPORTING BUSINESS
Christine QuinnAs Mayor, Speaker Quinn plans to create a new pool of city capital that would act as a backstop for community lenders, empowering them to make bigger loans to new and growing businesses. For every $2 million the city puts up, there would be a guarantee of as much as $5 million in small business lending. Speaker Quinn is the most business friendly of the Democratic candidates for Mayor.
Joe LhotaMr. Lhota has publicly condemned constant visits by various inspectors to small businesses. He considers it to be harassment and done strictly for revenue driven purposes. He wants to create a climate that will encourage and sustain job growth, including reducing burdensome regulations and taxes that will stifle private sector growth.
EDUCATION
Christine Quinn  Speaker Quinn supports funding for security, nursing and other programs at non-public schools. She has pledged to overhaul the city’s onerous way of dealing with special ed students to a way that would simplify the process and benefit the affected child. Speaker Quinn supports charter schools.
Joe Lhota  SCF President Sam Sutton has had a close working relationship with Joe Lhota throughout the years. They served together as trustees of the Board of The City University of New York (CUNY). Joe is a very public supporter of charter schools and school vouchers.
ISRAEL/WEST BANK
Christine QuinnSpeaker Quinn’s is a strong supporter of Israel and even shares that same position on the West Bank as the Israeli Government. Christine Quinn has visited Israel three times as Speaker and has worked to help Israeli companies who are doing business in New York City. She also supported a bid by Israel’s TECHNION to build a campus with Cornell in New York City.
Joe Lhota   While Joe has never visited Israel he is an outspoken supporter of the State of Israel and intends on working hard to promote the US-Israel relationship.

Charles J. Hynes for District Attorney (D/C-Brooklyn)
Perhaps the most important race that no one is focused on is the race for District Attorney. Charles “Joe” Hynes is a 20 year incumbent who was gone out of his way to work with the Jewish community. He has incredibly close relationships with our community’s leadership and his fairness has been his hallmark. Mr. Hynes works closely with SAFE, for example. When a community member is arrested for possession of drugs, Mr. Hynes works to get that community member treatment rather than prison. It’s no coincidence that Brooklyn is the safest borough in America. It’s the leadership of Joe Hynes that keeps our community safe. This is one election that WILL be decide in the Democratic Primary, so please make sure to vote to re-elect Charles J. Hynes on Tuesday, September 10th.
CITY COUNCIL RACES
Most people don’t realized how important their local City Council Members are. These are the folks who literally solve all of your local problems from streets to taxes to funding for non-profits. These are our picks for the community’s three seats in the New York City Council. They are the 44th, 47th and 48th Council Districts respectively.
Councilman David Greenfield (D/C-44)
David is the best friend the Sephardic & Jewish communities have in City Hall. In the 3.5 years that he has served he has done more for our communities than anyone else. He has invested nearly $15 million in every single park in his district including Ocean Parkway Malls, Friends Field on Avenue L and Colonel Marcus Park on Avenue P. Greenfield has passed laws that make life easier and more affordable. He passed the law giving us a 5 minute grace period at muni-meters, shutting down meters that don’t have receipts and making receipts portable. His office is open 45 hours a week making him the hardest working person in local government. He surely deserves to be re-elected.
Teacher Mark Treyger (D-47)
Our very dear friend  Councilman Domenic M. Recchia, Jr. can not run for re-election and is instead running for Congress. It won’t be easy to fill his shoes but we have the right guy for the job. Mark Treyger is a high-school civics teacher who has spent the last 10 years working as a political aide to a local Assemblyman. Treyger has a close working relationship with the Sephardic community. He has a proven track record of supporting the NYPD, opposing higher taxes and supporting yeshivot. We believe he will be a great member of the New York City Council and urge you to vote for him.
Community Board Chair Theresa Scavo (D-48)
Mike Nelson is not running for re-election due to term limits. To replace him, we support Theresa Scavo. Simply put, she has the most experience in the race as the current chair of Community Board 15. In that role she has worked hand-in-hand with our community leaders on important issues such a changing the zoning to accommodate our community’s needs, public safety and education. Theresa is a product of religious schools. She sent her children to religious schools, as well. Theresa is a big supporter of increasing funding for religious education in New York City. She would be a great member of the New York City Council.

Dov Hikind's Candidate for Mayor Snubbed by Orthodox Jews

As I predicted months back.  Dov Hikind did endorse Bill Thompson for mayor.  Turns out that Erick Salgado is doing a better job at Landaus shul in Midwood.


(Dov Hikind is directly left of Thompson.)
Although no one asked two words about homosexual marriages, just about every other issue important to Orthodox Jews Bill Thompson opposes.

So why exactly did Dov Hikind endorse homosexual supporter Bill Thompson especially considering that

-- Thompson has zero chance to even make it in the run-off
-- The Orthodox Jewish voters are voting for Salgado anyways (including his wife).
-- Thompson will not remove the regulation on circumcision.

Sephardic Community Federation Backed by Reform Rabbis

 

Recently, United to Save America (who didn't give me any credit for first producing the Image Magazine Story) dug a little deeper into the Image Magazine's pimped endorsement for the lesbian Christine Quinn. 

He post the actual letter from the Sephardic Community Federation


Turns out that their "Anonymous rabbis" mentioned in the letter are Reform Rabbis, many of them already officiate homosexual weddings.
