A call to the ultra-Orthodox residents of New York to come out and vote. Use according to section 27a

The mid-term elections in the USA: in the last few hours the electronic ballots were opened throughout the 45 different countries, when there were several places where the computers did not work at first but were later fixed. Following the claims of former President Donald Trump about the falsification of the presidential elections, in the last two years the authorities in the USA were mainly engaged in checking The multitude of claims and securing the elections to the Senate and the various governorships.

AP reported that among the states where there were malfunctions at the polling stations, malfunctions were also recorded in one county in New Jersey and another county in Arizona. The local authorities promised that the voters can choose the candidate from the party they want, and later they will make sure to enter the vote in the general computer. In North Carolina, voting hours will be extended beyond what was originally planned, due to workers being late to the polls.

Media outlets affiliated with the Democratic Party explained that many citizens are expected not to turn out and vote because “former President Donald Trump and his allies succeeded in sowing widespread mistrust regarding voting by promoting false claims of widespread fraud.” These media outlets also claimed that “the effort eroded public confidence in elections and democracy, led to restrictions on voting by mail and new ID card requirements in several countries led by the Democratic Republic and resulted in death threats against election officials.”

Along with ensuring a safe vote as mentioned, the US authorities are concerned about the vote counting phase in the various polling stations due to the desire of groups in the two major parties to “fraud” the elections. The purity of the elections is in cases where the electronic ballot will not work, and the voters will vote by paper ballot as they vote in Israel.

In one of the districts in Arizona, there was a widespread failure of no less than 20% of the electronic polling stations, which provoked a lot of criticism on social networks that the authorities “fell asleep on guard”. However, Arizona Department of Elections spokeswoman Megan Gilbertson claimed the problem was minor: “Voters have options, they can wait to put their ballot into the electronic ballot, they can use the secure drop box, or they can go to another vote center if they don’t They want to wait.”

All the samples and surveys carried out in the USA showed that the Republican Party is about to regain its majority in the House of Representatives, with the general estimate being that about 50 more seats will be painted red – the color of the Republican Party. Almost 44.5 million people across the United States have already voted, with the highest turnout in the Jewish communities stands out. High turnout rates were recorded in areas such as Brooklyn and Manhattan, boroughs of New York. Photos on Twitter showed large groups of ultra-Orthodox people crowding the polling stations, with one of the reasons for this being the desire to replace a governor who would cancel their “education decree,” the same New York Times investigation that claimed that Talmudic The ultra-Orthodox take money from the US government but do not really teach Leviathan.

Regarding the House of Representatives, the obvious results will probably be already tomorrow morning (Israel time). Regarding the Senate elections, because there are close races, there is a possibility that the results will come in just a few days. The fascinating and close Senate races are in the states of Pennsylvania, Georgia, Nevada, Ohio, and Arizona. At 2 am (Israel time) one of the first states where the polls will close is Virginia: 3 elected House seats there will tell us whether we are really on the way to a change in the House of Representatives. The fascinating and close gubernatorial races are in the states of Arizona, Pennsylvania, and Georgia.
