Journalist Reveals He Voted for Ayelet Shaked in Last Election
Journalist Akiva Novick revealed on Sunday that he voted for Ayelet Shaked in the most recent Israeli election, four years after the vote took place. The disclosure came in response to a social media discussion about how journalists decide to reveal their voting choices.
The conversation began when one user claimed that journalists critical of the government would still vote for parties within the current coalition. Another user countered, stating that Novick's situation was different, as he typically discloses his vote after elections. This user noted, "I don't recall him voting for one of the current coalition parties in the last election."
Novick directly addressed the discussion, confirming the user's assertion and stating, "True. I voted for Ayelet Shaked." This revelation occurs amid ongoing political developments and speculation about upcoming elections, with Shaked's name frequently mentioned in various political contexts.
Earlier on Sunday, Hili Tropper and Yoaz Hendel announced the dissolution of their "Zionist House" party, stating their ideological and personal partnership would continue despite their separate political paths. It remains unclear what Shaked's next political move will be, though reports suggest she is in discussions with former IDF Chief of Staff Benny Gantz.
