23rd Knesset

Israel Back to the Polls for a Third Time in a Year

On today’s special election edition of Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, Josh interviews the “man (and woman) in the street” outside a Gush Etzion polling station, as Israel votes for the 23rd Knesset – the country’s third election within a year. While most voters interviewed in this non-scientific poll said they would vote for Yemina led by Naftali Bennett, others said they would be choosing PM Netanyahu’s Likud. Other voters were undecided going into the polling station. Listen to today’s show to get a sense of the logic used by some Israelis as they cast their ballots.

Israelis Back to the Polls (Again)

Believe it or not, Israel will be holding elections for the 23rd Knesset this march – the third country-wide election in just one year, after MK’s from the leading parties were unsuccessful in forming a government coalition. Gil Hoffman, Chief Political Correspondent for the Jerusalem Post and Land of Israel show host, joins Josh Hasten to explain why Israelis will be going back to the polls on Monday, March 2, 2020.
