Voting G – Words of the Gaon and Tzaddik Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a – "Anyone who does not go to the elections violates all 613 mitzvos"

"Rabban Gamliel would say: Make for yourself a Rav (teacher), and remove yourself from doubt" (Avos 1:16)

As in every election cycle, many in the public are curious to know for whom our teacher, His Holy Eminence the Gaon and Tzaddik Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a (may he live long and good days), is voting. In response to the many inquiries, our teacher the Rav shlit"a follows the custom of Rabbi Levi Yitzchak Bender zt"l (of blessed memory) and has been voting "G" (Gimmel) for decades.

From the words of Rabbi Berland shlit"a - "Anyone who does not go to the elections violates all the 613 mitzvos (commandments)"
