Submission of lists for local elections: Who is running and where, and who has united? • Updates

Registration for the local election system closes: The factions across the country are submitting the lists that will run for councils and mayors this evening (Thursday).

After months of negotiations, intrigues, conflicts and slander, alongside a developing battle between Shas and Torah Judaism - the factions are serving the stew they cooked up in each city to the local election committees.

• In Jerusalem Agudat Israel submitted the list to the municipal elections committee. "Alongside the existing council members, the list is being renewed with young forces who will strengthen the forces working in the city council for the benefit of the public and the individual and to represent the holy communities in Jerusalem," Agudat Israel says.
