Israel's High Court of Justice on Friday overturned a decision by the Central Elections Committee, ruling that the Ra'am and Joint List parties will be permitted to compete in the upcoming Knesset elections. The court's decision was unanimous regarding the two parties.
However, two justices, Minka and Stein, dissented on the eligibility of Ofer Cassif, a candidate for the Joint List, to run. The majority of the court, as expected, ruled that Cassif would be allowed to compete in the elections.
