The Likud party has issued a dramatic statement alleging that the recent Israeli elections were "stolen" through serious criminal offenses. This claim comes in response to the significant gains made by Arab parties, which secured 19 Knesset seats. The Likud party is demanding an immediate investigation by law enforcement agencies, presenting a series of allegations they claim raise suspicions of tampering with election integrity.

In their statement, Likud asserted that "the elections in the State of Israel were stolen by Arab parties that support terror and the elimination of the Jewish state through serious criminal offenses of bribery, threats, violence, fraud, and the use of forbidden software to encourage voters." The party stated it is providing hundreds of testimonies and evidence to the police, Shin Bet, and the Election Committee regarding alleged election theft in numerous Arab polling stations.

Specific allegations include thousands of envelopes containing cash and Ra'am party ballots, threats and violence against poll workers, multiple voters behind the curtain, double voting, discrepancies between the number of envelopes and voters, and the use of prohibited encouragement software. Likud is calling for a thorough investigation by the police and Shin Bet into these alleged election thefts by Arab parties and for the perpetrators to be prosecuted.

Furthermore, the party is demanding an immediate response from the Election Committee regarding the investigation of these criminal offenses, which they argue have severely damaged election integrity and the results in Israel. Likud emphasized that this constitutes a grave blow to Israeli democracy and the voting rights of Israeli citizens, urging law enforcement to act decisively and immediately.
