#5457 Devote to Vote?
Question
Dear Rov. Elections in Lakewood N.J. are next week (April 10). I live in Toronto, do I have to make an effort to vote since I can if I try? What is HoRav Shlomo Miller opinion?
Answer
As mentioned already in a number of Teshuvos, Horav Shlomo Miller”s Shlit”a opinion is that one should in principle vote following the opinion of the Poskim and Rabbis familiar with the issues involved.
Then, it is not only a Mitzva, more so, it is an obligation to vote.
