Responding to Sa’ar petition, Netanyahu backs cameras in Likud polling stations

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu backs placing cameras in Likud polling stations for the December 26 leadership primary.

Likud lawmaker Gideon Sa’ar, who is challenging Netanyahu, had demanded Tuesday that cameras be placed at voting stations to prevent voter fraud.

Sa’ar appealed to the party’s internal court, asking that it order the installation of cameras, after Likud officials, in the form of the party’s internal elections committee, rejected his request a day earlier to record the voting and counting process with video cameras.

In response to Sa’ar’s petition, Netanyahu announces his support for the move.
