The difference between Orthodox Jews in Queens vs Brooklyn is that if a Queens rabbi tells his congregants “you should vote for Turner,” his congregants will say “OK maybe I’ll consider what you’re saying but I’ll make my own mind.”
While in Brooklyn the rabbis say “it is an obligation to vote for Turner because it is a big disgrace for the Jewish people if Weprin wins” and everyone follows in droves. It is the mother of GOTV efforts.

As much as I dislike some aspects of his politics-and personality-I've got to give credit to my former assemblyman, Dov Hikind.
He did more to help elect Bob Turner than the entire Republican Party in the borough of Brooklyn.
