How Liberal Jews voted for Hitler admirer

FROM DAVID ADAMS IN WEST PALM BEACH

CONFUSION at the result of the vote turned into frustration and anger yesterday over the implication that a liberal Jewish neighbourhood had voted for Patrick Buchanan, the Reform Party candidate, who has expressed admiration for Hitler.

In 1992 the Anti-Defamation League charged that Mr Buchanan had shown “a disregard or hostility toward those not like him.”

Helen Halperin, 81, said she was certain her poor eyesight and the wrong advice in the voting booth led her to vote for the wrong man.

“There is no one I detest more than Buchanan. I think he’s pure evil,” she said. Mrs Halperin said she considers herself a Democrat but had voted in the past for Republicans, including Ronald Reagan. Although she called Bill Clinton “the lover”, she thought him a good President and had planned to vote for Mr Gore. Now she is angry and upset and angry.

“My precious vote is lost. I lost it on that devil.”
