Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleOtzma Yehudit party member and Union of Right Wing Parties (URWP) candidate Itamar Ben Gvir announces that he has filed a petition to the Supreme Court against yesterday’s ruling by the Central Elections Committee, which dismissed the URWP request to bump him up two spots on its joint list to take the spot of Otzma Yehudit head Michael Ben Ari, who was disqualified last week by the Supreme Court for incitement to racism.
A decision from the top legal body is expected in the coming days.
