Gadi Eisenkot, chairman of the Yisrael Beiteinu party, responded Sunday to a joint statement by the Chairman of the Central Elections Committee, Noam Sohlberg, Shin Bet head David Zini, and Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara. The statement explicitly confirmed the integrity of the recent elections and asserted that the overall results were not undermined, following an investigation into alleged election interference.
Eisenkot criticized the Likud party for attempting to challenge the election outcomes. He praised the Central Elections Committee chairman's declaration, stating, "The base and malicious attempt to deny the election results, to challenge the public's will, to defame an entire public, and to drag Israel to additional elections has failed." He added, "Only someone who understands they have lost would embark on such a blatant campaign of delegitimization, even at the cost of further damaging public trust in state institutions."
Eisenkot called on the public to disregard what he termed "background noise and hourly spins." He emphasized, "The results of the 26th Knesset elections are clear and unequivocal. Citizens of Israel, ignore the background noise and ignore the hourly spins. The people are sovereign, and they have spoken: the government of failure has no majority and it has lost."
