Strategic Advisor Berl Krumby Says Ultra-Orthodox Groups Are Influencing Likud Primaries

Strategic advisor Berl Krumby told Channel 7 that organized ultra-Orthodox groups are mobilizing voters in the Likud primaries despite not supporting the party in general elections. He described the primary voting as a "true celebration of democracy" with free voters, but noted that many have figured out the system through ballot box commanders. Krumby highlighted that these ultra-Orthodox groups include members who have never voted for Likud before. He also pointed out that many ministers and Knesset members ranked in the second and third tiers are fighting for their political survival, recognizing the influence of these ultra-Orthodox factions in the primaries.
