Weprin will win. It will not be close but it will be "closer than it should be".

Anyways, as to the by-election... my general view remains the same. This is (or ought to be) a safe seat. End of. So losing it would be a big fycking blow, no matter what bollocks could be spun about the humiliating circumstances or the grossly exaggerated importance of the Hasidic vote.

Of course, safe seats are often lost in by-elections. And a big contributing factor is often (though not always) a poor choice of candidate. And, well... yeah. So, we'll see.
the orthodox vote here is mostly litvish and sefardi not hasidic (just as religious though (if not more so))

Do you offer some sort of system thats weighs the religiousness of the various sects?

If the Dems actually lose this seat, that will really be something. I remain skeptical for now.
