Elections Committee confirms results for the 26th Knesset

The Central Elections Committee confirmed this morning the results of the 26th Knesset elections with a majority of 15 votes in favor, two against, and 14 abstentions. The decision followed an extensive debate that included an in-depth review of thousands of polling stations amid allegations of foreign influence on the election process, as reported by Channel 7 and Srugim. Representatives from the Haredi parties and Likud abstained, while opposition representatives voted in favor of the confirmation.

Committee Chairman Justice Solberg clarified that while the raised suspicions are being investigated, they do not cast doubt on the overall integrity of the elections. Concurrently, JDN reported that the official results will be submitted to the President of Israel and published in the official records. Further details have not yet been released.
