R' Hershel emphasized to FAA News that originally he did not plan to run this year, however, he agreed to throw his hat into the ring because numerous community members highlighted to him that this year specifically there is an open seat being vacated by Mike D'Elia and therefore he would not be running against any incumbent, a factor that caused previous election runs to look like "fighting."

ReplyDeletei think i speak for many in lakewood, when i say that we will wait for the what the vaad tells us to do in elections as in general i dont follow politics but DO follow Daas Torah and i have hakaras hatov to the vaad for helping me with a HUD application
ReplyDeleteThat's why 70% of Lakewood ignored the vaad in last elections when they endorsed Murphy and they followed their daas Torah also. Stop with pushing your daas torah against others..
DeleteThe vaad no longer is relevant as long as they are not appointed by the people through a fair election process and no members are allowed to have any monetary gain from the taxes like the lcsc
You speak for nobody but yourself
The Va'ad is a group of Ba'aeli Batim. If you claim you follow Da'as Torah, then attribute that to Ba'alei Batim, you are the opposite of a Da'as Torah follower, you are the one Reb Elchanan was talking against.
DeleteAn even bigger # sat on their hands.They weren't completely ready to totally have ignored the Vaad back then
DeleteThey're ready gung ho ready
Typical, its always about how you gained personally (w your HUD issue) and not whats best for the klal as a whole. (Agav, Most Vaad Members are living in tax exempt homes.)
DeleteI am low income and get HUD so property taxes are not nogea to me.
DeleteAnon - 11:23 - you are right. Everyone should vote for the candidate that is best for themselves, don't let anyone take away your vote and use it for the 'klal'.
DeleteEven if there was any method of verifying that the Klal indeed will gain from your vote this way or that, you do not owe them that.
If everybody started to vote their own interests, instead of voting the shita, we would all be a lot better off.
If so how come we needed a Vaad or the OU or Agudah to tell us what are our own interests
Delete
DeleteAlways backfires.
Been there "own interests", done that
Always backfires.
sooner or later. Then the whining comes.
When we vote for larger aims the politicians value us
Vaad helped u with hud application?!?? Sincerely, when do they fill out hud applications? Was it AK that filled it out ?
DeleteThe Va'ad, OU and Agudah tell you what their interests are.
DeleteVote your interests, not Hunter Biden's or Ivanka Trump. Who has policies that benefit you? Immigration is not your worry, neither is the DOJ's investigating Trump. What's best for you? And you only.
You choose a plumber based on your own needs, you choose a landscaping company based on your needs. Choose your politician the same way.
No shitos, only practicalities.
"No shitos, only practicalities"
DeleteWho made that up
Show us a source maybe please
DeleteMishpacha #970 R"ch Av articles by Avi Schick and Yaakov Menken on why voting narrow interests or gelt are a bad idea
I think I speak for many in Lakewood, when I say that I will vote AGAINST Avi Schnall, who brought an unmitigated disaster on Yidden in NJ through his Jackson lawsuits which helped antisemitism flourish.
ReplyDeleteIf you don’t mind elaborating on Ned Thompson’s support for R’ Eiseman? I don’t recall any statements etc. on the other hand a random Senator Joseph Cryan was the one that demanded we look into the Prosecutor!
ReplyDeleteSo now he did a campaign walk with Schi and people are falling for it??
Hershel You are out of your mind. Or really our minds. You say out whats on all our minds......Go Hershel go!
ReplyDeleteWhy is everybody so anti Schnall? What am I missing? Without bashing him [its the day after Y"K] can someone politely explain what positions he takes that I shouldn't vote for him.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all because he's running as a Democrat joining a party of רשעים רוצחים who are bringing sdom and amorah to our communities that's for a start
DeleteThe sinas Yisrael it is already causing among the neighbors of republican Ocean county look how the surrounding towns are responding putting us in potential Sakana
Challenging a republican incumbent who was nice helpful to our community going against what even the vaad always preaches Hakoras Hatov to incumbents
He is the face of Jackson lawsuits even if it was right but there's animosity to the olam
He's not supporting Arthur Lang in bringing tuition relief to Lakewood
There will be letters of support by the moetzes and Lakewood rosh yeshivas but in the past elections people don't buy it and or simply stay home and don't vote
And if he's promising vouchers in democrat liberal new Jersey
There's a bridge in Brooklyn or by now Toms River
They're ready now
DeleteThe Vaad is as good as dead
the candidate could possibly be good for your daughter's birthday party
CAN YOU PLEASE TALK ABOUT THE NEW DEVELOPEMENT IN FREE LUNCHES. AND WHICH SCHOOLS IN LKWD WILL THIS HELP?
ReplyDeleteWHEN WILL IT START?
Nothing yet, this is still a work in progress.
DeleteNot According to the USDA https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2023/09/26/2023-20294/child-nutrition-programs-community-eligibility-provision-increasing-options-for-schools
Deletefyi for those who already put up their schach with the awning on, you can lift the mats (or what ever schach your using)up and put it back down no need to remove all and put back up
ReplyDelete3 Tefachim and the whole piece of schach has to be lifted at the same time.
DeleteMishna Berura 626:18 writes what to do. Don't trust anonymous commenters
DeleteMost probably will help the cheder/ bais faiga they just got thrown off the program.. very likely may help lots of schools…
ReplyDeleteAsk your local rav about the schach issue
ReplyDeleteIf you find it difficult to learn Mishna Berura by yourself, by all means, ask a Rav.
DeleteWhy didn't hefkervelt publish the terrible chillul Hashem on Y"K that happened in Tel Aviv in EY? I completely didn't know about it until the gedolim referenced it as a reason that the war started and how we are all at fault for not doing teshuva and mourning the terrible chillul Hashem that occurred when secular yidden disrupted and desecrated YK tefillos.
