Polls have closed in the second round of Israel’s nationwide municipal elections. Voting was held between the hours of 1 p.m. and 10 p.m.
Final voter turnout figures have not yet been released by the Interior Ministry but only 350,851 eligible voters, 36.4% of the total, had cast ballots as of 8 p.m.
Elections were held today in locations where none of the candidates running for mayor managed to secure the 40% of ballots necessary to win in the first round of municipal elections two weeks ago.
