Influential Jewish group crosses party lines to back Lee Zeldin over ‘failed’ Gov. Hochul

An influential Orthodox Jewish business group with a history of backing powerful New York Democrats is crossing party lines to endorse Rep. Lee Zeldin over Gov. Kathy Hochul in the race for governor.

Saying Hochul “failed” to make key changes to New York’s controversial bail laws and reduce crime, Duvi Honig, CEO of the Wall Street-based Orthodox Jewish Chamber of Commerce, told The Post that New York needs a governor that exhibits an “unwavering stand on violent crime” — and Zeldin is the man for the job.

“Violent criminals endanger local businesses and institutions, jeopardize the lives and livelihoods of law-abiding individuals, and harm state and local economies and the sense of security all residents of New York need and deserve,” said Honig in his endorsement letter.

About time that our liberal landsmen woke up to what is going on around them and fight back.

Never Again!

I am sure this helped Zelden, and only regret it was not enough to get him over the line. But maybe it just came to late in the campaign, so maybe there is still help.

If you look at a map of the 2022 votes, district by district, New York is a Red map, with a few Blue patches, which unfortunately contain a majority of the NY population.
