5,881,696 eligible to vote in March election
There are 5,881,696 citizens who are eligible to vote for the 20th Knesset, the Interior Ministry says in a statement.
An interesting piece of data is the relatively high number of Jerusalem residents who are not allowed to vote: While in Tel Aviv there are 403,206 eligible voters out of a total population of 511,676, in Jerusalem there are 385,807 eligible voters but the total population is nearly one million people (918,048).
