Petition alleges Likud shared polling data in violation of election law

A petition is filed with the Central Elections Committee alleging that Prime Minister Netanyahu’s Likud party shared polling data in violation of Israeli law.

The petition, filed by attorney Schahar Ben-Meir, alleges that a Likud voice message that was sent out saying that polls show Netanyahu’s right-wing bloc would currently win 59.7 Knesset seats — violates a law barring the publication of polling data after the Friday before election day.
