Kiryas Joel, NY – Poll workers recruited by Woodbury activist Jonathan Swiller to monitor voting in Kiryas Joel yesterday say an enormous crowd of jeering boys pelted them with eggs as they left the polling station last night.

“They were shouting, screaming at us, and we couldn’t quite figure out what they were saying,” recalled Woodbury resident Mindy Prosperi, one of about 20 poll watchers brought in from outside the Hasidic community.
Swiller, who leads a citizens’ group called OCEAN, said he and one of his poll watchers exited after the others and soon found themselves surrounded by the same boys, who chanted “Losers!”
Swiller said members of the village’s Public Safety Department escorted him and the poll watchers through the hostile crowd and into a patrol car, then drove them to their cars.
Public Safety Director Moses Witriol couldn’t be reached for comment.
Obviously this isn’t the first time those bochorim do this. what supprises me is that why, after such a victory they still aren’t satisfied.
dreidel, assuming you live in Wili, just wondering what if one (Jewish) faction brings Sharpton to observe teh polling booths in your area, and then that faction looses, how would it end?…
that is a nice way of saying get out of here!
Bottom line, Who is the trustees, stop talking about nonsense it dosent help.
so atleast they should know that they are not welcome in kj any idea what they were doing at the kj voting polls ?
Aha, so the attitude in KJ is, that anyone thinking or doing something CERTAIN people don’t like, he’s being compared to Al Sharpton, yelled at, and getting eggs pelted at them, what a beautiful community, and how big a kiddush hashem.
Sounds like behavior before kabolas hatorah. what happened to derech eretz kodma ltorah?
story isn’t coming from anywhere, a few depressed zalis are making roumors left and right, stop with the nonesense, zali lost and lost big time. don’t even try to distract us with this stupitidy
you guys are pathetic!! think a little bigger than your tiny world of KJ! This is a massive chillul Hashem and a great example for the worl to see how frum Yidden behave!
Hello VIN reader.
Its time u sould releize what this manority group is doing with us.
they giving us tzuress since the rebbe came as ruv in kj.
I as kj resident and a fellow rebbes chusid can’t take it any more.
I don’t want to have this stress every 2 year .
Please come up witha plan this nasty rivel elections should be stopped immidetly!!!!
Jacob
I agree with u.
but its getting worse.
1) the elected offichals are giving better services for the misnagdim . becaouse they wana
have ther votes (zalies win)
2) they have something what no other rebbeshe chasidus have.
it is to have a clear count how many each side have (zalies win)
3) this list goes mouch farwerd
So I agree that this have to STOP!!!!
THARE SHOULD BE NO VOTES AT ALL
ho a bruch!!!
it’s american law that a candidate has the legal right to send “poll observers” to any voting place. I don’t understand why it’s so necessary to act like beheimas and be mechallel hashem.
SATMARS HAVE A LONG HISTORY WITH THRWING EGGS! THEY LOVE THROWING EGGS…
these boys are innocent, this is the chinuch they got all the years, their rabbis are at fault, what a chilul hashem! but as long chilul hashem is not considered as zionism its just ok I guess.
I don’t understand the aroinies, if they have nothing to hide with the way the election is being controlled (by the village), and there is no fraud and no forgeries going on by the village leaders through out the elections. so why are they upset at those poll watchers??? they should be happy that the poll watchers should see their honesty….?
I guess the fact says otherwise.. I assume they’re hiding somethings.
yes! its a proven fact that these monroe boys happen to be very good at throwing eggs, just be patient & one day we will hear that their own so called rabbi was showered with eggs! what goes around comes around! we just have to continue to support that yeshiva so there is enough eggs in the yeshiva kitchen!

WELL SAID I was thinking the same thing. I happen to hold of Reb Ahron as the appropriate
worthy successor to the Satmar dynasty – I would hope that he does not condone this animalistic and moronic behaviour – A gross chillul Hashem.
Anyway what do they want from these neutral poll watches who are just doing their job. These are a bunch of hooligans and should be reprimanded and severly punished by the Rebbe’s directive
otherwise it would seem that this is the normal expected behavior from his followers. Chas V’Sholom.
B”H ah zah groise kiddish HaShem. The Rebbe ZY’O
shepped groise nachas fin zahne boochrim.
the yarmer ruv said once its a beferisher chinuch
