Description | Likud officials said on Sunday that they believed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would accept an offer to halt electronic voting procedures in Likud's primaries, opting to continue the elections through casting individual ballots.
The proposal was raised by Vice Prime Minister Moshe Ya'alon, following a day rife with reports of voting computer malfunctions.
Problems were reported at locations including Jerusalem’s main polling station -- the International Convention Centers, where 80 computerized voting systems were shut down -- and at the polling station in the Tel Aviv neighborhood of Yad Eliyahu, which was also shut down.
Other locations with reported malfunctions were Ramat Gan, Ashdod, Gan Yavne and Mt. Hebron Regional Council.
Likud officials indicated that most of the malfunctions have been fixed by now, and that it was possible to vote in the Jerusalem and Tel Aviv polling stations.
However, reports indicated that problems persisted elsewhere. |
