Likud issues an official statement expressing its “concern” over the high voter turnout in the Arab sector. Prime Minister Netanyahu uploaded a clip to Facebook where he says “the rule of the right is in danger. Arab voters are coming in droves to the ballot boxes. Left wing NGOs bring them in buses.”
Netanyahu continues: “We have no V15 movement, we have just a call to arms, and we only have you. Go out to the polling stations; bring your friends and family members. Vote Likud to close the gap between us and the Labor party.”
