In Borough Park we have the same issue or even worse…our own so called orthodox Dov Hikind is looking to split us up in 6 districts ….essentially making our votes and voices and concerns unheard.

This was a nasty rumor that was started by his Democrat opponents and is being propagated in the press.

The Orthodox community in Riverdale was split into three state senate districts by the Republican gerrymander nine years ago.

This is irresponsible reporting, in my opinion, and I would like to understand why YWN would choose to start such a rumor.

Why does he feel this is necessary? Does he feel threatened?
