The Central Elections Committee clarified on Sunday that claims circulating online about Likud representatives monitoring voters at polling stations and reporting on them via an app are false. The committee stated that it has received no reports of such activity. It did acknowledge a specific incident where a polling station committee member photographed voters at a polling station in the community of Yarchiv.
