Election committee blocks left-wing plan to bus Arab voters
[IsraelNationalNews] The Central Elections Committee issued an injunction Sunday night against the left-wing NGO Zazim's initiative to bus 15,000 Arab voters to voting booths on election day, ruling that the initiative is in violation of the election laws.
The injunction came following a petition submitted by the Likud arguing that Zazim, which is heavily funded by the US-based New Israel Fund, is violating the election the laws.
In 2017, the Knesset passed the "V15" law aimed at preventing foreign funded non-party political organizations from interfering in the elections. The law was passed following the efforts of V15, a US-funded group, which actively worked to defeat Prime Minister Netanyahu in the 2015 national elections.
