Lion, Berkovitch maintain lead in Jerusalem with third of vote counted

Moshe Lion and Ofer Berkovitch maintain their leads over Yossi Deitch and Ze’ev Elkin in the Jerusalem mayoral election after a third of the votes have been counted.

Lion has 31.5% of the votes, Berkovitch 29.9%, Elkin 19.6% and Deitch 18.7%.

With no candidate slated to earn 40% of the vote, Lion and Berkovitch will likely head to a runoff in two weeks.
