Menchlich & joe ram,
Hikind’s time has come. He needs to go. Enough of a loud mouth who does spend more time out of touch and country. I know ppl that went to myself includeded when an issue arose. First questioned asked do I live in his district. So what if I didn’t I am a yid going to another yid albiet a politician and my answer was no to do I live in his district and they shove me out the door so to say. So yeah I live in his district npw but no way am I voting for him. I just shoved him out the door. Goodbye Hikind

We will, Mr. Doherty. Go to the central synagogues in Boro Park (e.g. Shomer Shabbos 13 & 53) and ask around, you’ll be shocked of the negative response you’ll get on Hikind. He is a person who has taken our vote for granted for much too long and has no major accomplishments to cite throughout his career. He is the typical Albany insider that works with back-room deals and shady business to stay in power. We gotta show him that we mean business. Vote a protest vote against Hikind this coming Tuesday. Remember, this is the first chance in nearly three centuries where you can show Hikind that he too must show accountability. If Hikind wins by a large margin, his sky-high ego and arrogance will go to greater heights.

Stop Hikind, Vote Doherty!

I would like to thank everyone for their wonderful and supportive comments in response to this article. It is my honor even to be considered as a candidate to represent to great people of the 48th District.

The people of Bay Ridge, Borough Park, Dyker Heights and Midwood have, for far too long, been forced to send the same person to Albany year in and year out without a choice. I am proud to offer an alternative to the iron fisted rule that has left many in all of our communities without a political voice for fear of retribution.

The next step is yours. Make the most of this long awaited choice in candidates and please, please, please get out ond vote on November 2nd!

We need an Assemblyman that will actually be seen by the community. I think its time for a change. Doherty has got my vote.

Hikind has definitely lost his enthusiasm for his elected position. His main issues now are all centered in Israel. Very nice but he was elected here. I’ll vote for Doherty even though normally a frum yid is preferred. However that’s in a case where the frum yid is accomplishing something. Hikind isn’t. And even his vaunted kingmaker status has been sharply curbed in recent years. Sometimes his opinion and voice can only hurt klal yisroel’s status to the political establishment.

“stop going to Israel”"remove Shelly Silver” Has everyone lost their minds. Is the hatred of Hikind si blinding that we would elect someone who is basically saying he would remove the jewish politicians. Lose Shelly Silver lose alot.
