Over 12,000 polls are open across the country to allow 6,788,804 eligible Israeli voters to cast their ballots for the 25th Knesset.
Most doors open at 7 a.m. and will close at 10 p.m., though they allow voters who enter before the cut-off to cast their ballots. Some rural centers and specialty polls open an hour later, at 8 a.m.
Israeli citizens age 18 and up on election day may vote.
Immigrants who complete their citizenship registration at least 60 days before today are also eligible to vote, including about 45,000 new Israelis who arrived by the end of August this year.
Israel does not allow absentee voting. Only the about 4,500 Israelis posted abroad as diplomats, representatives of other government ministries, the military and police and their families were able to vote beyond the borders of the state. They completed this process on October 20.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
