tag: voting Sorted Chronologically (old to new). Sort most recent first? A prayer for the electorate to be recited together with the Prayer for Government on the Shabbat before an election (federal, state, or local). . . . On Tuesday, we go to the polls in a momentous election that for many of us has generated a combination of anxiety, excitement, fear, and confusion. We offer you this prayer, which you can recite this Shabbat, before you vote, or while you are waiting for returns. . . . A private prayer for fulfilling your civic duty and voting, whether in a voting booth or by mail. The concluding partial berakhah (without its full preamble, so as to avoid a berakhah levatala) is traditionally stated upon seeing a king of a nation, so in a democratic regime it seems appropriate to adopt for the voters. . . . A civic prayer for the United States of America in anticipation of Election Day 2024. . . . This Prayer for Voting was written by Rachie Lewis, senior writer of קשת Keshet: For LGBTQ Equality in Jewish Life, and first published at Keshet’s website on 23 September 2024. . . .
