In depth

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke in the past hour with former United Torah Judaism chairman MK Moshe Gafni about voter turnout in the Haredi sector, according to Israel Hayom. According to the report, the Haredi parties claim the field is waking up, and figures by city are expected to be published in another 45 minutes.

According to Arutz Sheva, Netanyahu called Shlomi Emunim chairman MK Meir Porush and asked him to make every effort to increase voter turnout in the Haredi public before the polling stations close. In his words, according to internal Likud polls, a 60-60 seat tie between the blocs is emerging. Channel 14 reported the same request.
