Biden also went to New York to support the Democrats.
Joe Biden made his way to New York in one of his last campaign events for the 2022 elections to hold an election rally for Democratic Governor Katie Hochul. It’s still unbelievable that such prominent Democratic figures, from Hillary Clinton and Michelle Obama to Bill Clinton, and now the President of the United States, have to come to New York to support the Democrats in a state that has always been a safe space for them.
The situation for the Democratic Governor in the competition with her tough rival in New York is sensitive and has become even more sensitive. In the latest polls, the gap between Katie Hochul and Lee Zeldin has reached an astonishing margin of error.
Two key issues in the current US elections have become like a double-edged sword for Hochul’s campaign. On one hand, crime, law enforcement, and public safety have become a key issue in this state, and Zeldin unbelievably capitalized on this issue with artistry. On the other hand, the economic crisis and inflation are of great importance to the citizens, and everyone knows this.
The key point of the story is the Jewishness of Lee Zeldin, a candidate for the New York governorship. He has been one of the two Jewish representatives in the House of Representatives and has gradually gained the serious support of the Jewish community in the race for the governorship. Just yesterday, he received an official endorsement from one of the most important Jewish bases in New York.
Democrats have been aware of the significance and importance of attracting the support of the Jewish community in New York for Katie Hochul and other Democratic candidates in various competitions in the state for a long time. Recently, Biden had a conversation with the leader of the Orthodox Jews in New York and made warm statements and specific promises in an effort to gain the support of this senior Jewish clergyman for the benefit of the Democratic candidates, but it is unclear whether he has succeeded.
