How crazy is this?
Why fix something that isn't broke?
Inna Vernikov, a frum lady has been doing a great job for the community, even though the Chareidim backed the loser Saperstein, who ran as a democrat.
For once Inna proved the "ASS'kanim capos" wrong, and showed that one can run as a republican in New York and win without any of the "ass'kanim capos" and without any of the moisdois' endorsements.
Amber, claims that she got death threats, I don't believe this for one second, she wants you to have sympathy for her, she never won an election and if she cannot take the heat, she should stay out of the kitchen.
A single mother who is a civic leader in Brooklyn’s Orthodox community announced her campaign last week for New York City Council in 2023.Amber Adler, 38, will run as a Democrat for the City Council’s 48th District, which encompasses Brighton Beach, Midwood, Manhattan Beach and parts of Coney Island.
“The community is suffering,” Adler told the New York Jewish Week, referring to issues of poverty, crime and cleanliness. “Across the community, it’s all I hear when I’m out. A downpour of complaints, people begging for help.”
In an interview, Adler said she is running on a campaign of “safety, unity and prosperity,” while making the case that the incumbent, Republican Inna Vernikov, has been “divisive” since she was elected in December 2021.
Should they both end up in the general election next year, it would pit two Jewish women against each other in an Orthodox district of Brooklyn that leaned toward Donald Trump in 2016 and where Orthodox women are discouraged from taking on public leadership roles.
Adler is acutely aware of this fact, saying that she faced harassment and death threats when she ran for City Council last year. “Other people who weren’t Orthodox, they didn’t have the same attacks that I did,” Adler said. “While it would be two women running, I do think that in comparison I will most likely get the brunt of the excessive harassment and dangerous behaviors.” Vernikov, 38, is Jewish, but not Orthodox.
