New York Voting Registration Deadline
Today, we are facing new challenges and old sinister threats that each of us are required to take very seriously. The headlines are ominous and the day's news continues to be frightening.

For our basic security, the integrity of our yeshiva education, and our fundamental religious freedoms, the upcoming primary election next month is a most critical election for our future.  

Because of term limits, New York City will be electing a new mayor, a new comptroller, 4 out of 5 new boro presidents and a large majority of the city council.

It is imperative that our community have a voice in selecting the new city government. Our ability to practice and live as Torah Jews in NYC is on the ballot. 

The best way to ensure that voice is to VOTE - and every single vote counts.

Primary Day is June 22 and early voting begins June 12th.

In order to vote you must be registered. The registration deadline to vote in the June 22 primary is THIS FRIDAY May 28th.
