  • Election Committee updated guidelines to speed up voting.
  • Poll workers can now identify the next voter concurrently.
  • The change addresses long queues at polling stations nationwide.
  • The goal is to streamline the voting process for citizens.

The Central Election Committee has updated its guidelines for polling station secretaries, allowing them to begin identifying the next voter in line while the current voter is still behind the curtain.

This adjustment was implemented in response to the lengthy queues observed at polling stations across Israel. The committee aims to streamline the voting process and reduce waiting times for citizens.

The updated directive enables a more efficient workflow at the ballot boxes, as the identification process can now overlap with the voting itself, rather than being a sequential step.
