Satmar Hassidic Group Launches $1 Million Campaign to Discourage Voting
The Satmar Hassidic community has launched a multi-million dollar campaign aimed at discouraging its members from voting in upcoming elections. This initiative, which began on Sunday, involves distributing millions of dollars in grants to thousands of individuals within the community. The campaign also includes a significant expansion to include additional communities within the Hassidic sector.
This effort by Satmar stands in contrast to the activities of many Israeli politicians, particularly from the ultra-Orthodox parties, who are actively campaigning across the country to garner votes. The Satmar leadership is reportedly allocating substantial funds to ensure widespread participation in their anti-voting drive.
