maybe after another few years of paying exorbitant ever rising taxes, dealing with the police bias, and a mayor who could care less as long as the goyim like him, maybe although i am not optimistic the lakewood residents will realise that they need someone who will work for them and not show callous disregard for the issues which affect the "yochid".

Which rabbis does the vaad consult with? the dayan in lakewood and rabbi neuman both said that u cannot vote for menendez due to his position on moral issues. unfortunately it seems that the majority of the kehila just follows what they say without knowing any better!

hard to believe that the number of votes for meir is accurate. i spoke to many people who they and their friends did not vote for him. i have nothing against him but if he feels to pressured to help his fellow people than we would be better off with someone else

at the end of the day I think our mission is hopeless. The VAAD won by a landslide. This is depressing.

I have some news for you folks. You might not like to hear what I have to say , but the truth hurts. The people making the noise on this blog are the same few individuals over and over again. The overwhelming majority of people in Lakewood (as is evident from the results) support the Vaad, support Meir Lichtenstein, support Menashe Miller and support the yeshiva. Period. You can not argue with facts. You can make noise and all the comments you want. The facts on the ground speak for themselves. The rabim has spoken. Period. End of discussion.

If a 19 year old Dovid Eggert can get 900 votes in a yeshiva controlled town, the vaad knows full well that one major move that will upset the tzibbur can tip the scales next time.
you need two independents to really see how many people are voting "anti vaad".
the winner (Lichtenstein) only got 8,932 votes ~
AK, your house of cards is falling - better milk the developers etc. while you still have control.

Why isnt Menashe Miller mayor - I know he wouldnt want it but he beat lichtenstien.
FYI the yeshiva pushed for Menendez because they got big money from him they contributed big time to his campaign

Who is "The Dayan"? Forchimer, Felder, Katz, Finkel? There are many dayonim which one?
The vaad did not want to endorse M. Miller, Lichtenstein is the go to guy for the Vaad. Miller unfortunately sticks up for the small guy.
