The Association for Civil Rights in Israel has urged the Chairman of the Central Elections Committee, Judge Noam Sohlberg, to immediately dispatch observers to polling stations in Arab towns. This call comes in response to numerous complaints detailing significant delays and long queues at voting centers.
The complaints specifically mentioned towns such as Rahat, Shaqib al-Salam, Umm Batin, Iksal, Jaljulia, Kafr Qara, Ar'ara, Tamra, and Tayibe. At the Shaqib al-Salam Comprehensive High School, the association reported that approximately 200 voters were waiting outside, with a heavy police and National Guard presence reportedly preventing them from entering under the guise of managing crowds.
The association warned that these prolonged delays could disenfranchise Arab citizens, preventing them from exercising their right to vote. They are demanding an investigation into the causes of these delays and the implementation of immediate measures to ensure the electoral process proceeds without obstruction.
