Michael Rabilo, the personal lawyer of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and a Likud candidate for State Comptroller, has withdrawn his bid for the position. The vote is expected after the new Knesset is sworn in. Rabilo reportedly decided to step down because he believes his chances of winning have significantly decreased following the coalition's loss of its parliamentary majority. The coalition is not planning to compete with former Supreme Court judge Yosef Elron, who is also seeking the post and received opposition support in June. From the coalition's perspective, Elron is now a more favorable candidate than any new contender from the opposition bloc, which holds a Knesset majority. Rabilo's withdrawal effectively increases Elron's chances of being elected.
