Hoboken elected its first Sikh mayor on Tuesday night, days after a flyer branded him as a “terrorist.”Those who think that Sikhs are connected to terrorism have to be dumber than Donald Trump. Or his son, Eric.
Ravinder Bhalla, a councilman born and raised in New Jersey, defeated five other candidates to take the place of Mayor Dawn Zimmer, who announced she would step down after two terms.
The Hoboken cops are treating distributing the flyers as a possible bias crime. I tend to think that the First Amendment is going to have a say on that.
