The Central Elections Committee has ordered the covering of its own signs that prohibit photography. The directive was issued because a figure depicted on the sign was mistakenly shown holding a ballot marked with the Hebrew letters "Nun" and "Yud," which are associated with the "Noam" party. The committee is taking action to prevent any perceived endorsement or association with a specific political party, ensuring neutrality in its public messaging.
The error on the signs, which are intended to inform the public about photography restrictions, led to the unintended display of a party's symbol. The committee aims to rectify this visual misrepresentation promptly to avoid any confusion or allegations of bias during the election period.
