After Reviewing 9,069 Polling Stations, Israeli Election Committee Confirms Integrity of Results

The Israeli Elections Committee announced the completion of the review of election results, confirming that it found no violations or indicators suggesting a compromise to the integrity of the voting process or changes to the results.

In a statement, the committee said the examination included a review of minutes from 9,069 polling stations, along with an in-depth audit of voting materials and documents when necessary, including actual ballots and voter registers.

It added that the audits covered all polling stations regarding which review requests had been submitted, clarifying that the election results will be presented to the President of the State and published according to established procedures.

For his part, the Director of the Central Elections Committee, Dean Lefni, stated that the committee handled every inquiry received from political factions, candidate lists, and the public independently and based on the facts related to each case, noting that required corrections were implemented when needed, relying on official records and voting materials.

The Chairman of the Central Elections Committee, Noam Solberg, confirmed yesterday that the final official results of the Knesset elections held last week would be announced at the scheduled time, rejecting a new attempt by the outgoing coalition to delay their announcement.

Upon receipt of the final official results, President Isaac Herzog begins consultations with party leaders to determine their nominee for the position of Prime Minister. It is expected that, at the conclusion of these consultations, he will grant the mandate to form the next government to the person who receives the support of the largest number of party leaders.
