Netanyahu Cancels Likud Conference Vote Due to Legal Delays, Reschedules for Monday

The Likud party announced that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered the cancellation of the scheduled vote at the party conference due to ongoing legal delays that prevented many party members from voting. The decision was made to ensure that all Likud members have the opportunity to exercise their voting rights. The party stated that the vote will be rescheduled to a near future date, with indications pointing to Monday as the new date for the conference.

Ahead of the rescheduled vote, the Likud's Constitution Committee is expected to convene on Sunday to reject competing proposals, preparing the way for the upcoming vote. The cancellation and rescheduling come after procedural disruptions linked to judicial delays, which affected the voting process and participation.

This move reflects Netanyahu's insistence on a fair and inclusive voting process within the party, emphasizing the importance of member participation. The Likud leadership is coordinating the next steps to ensure the vote proceeds smoothly once the legal issues are resolved.
