Rivlin says voting is ‘a privilege and a duty’

A smiling President Rivlin accompanied by First Lady Nechama Rivlin cast their votes in Jerusalem, earlier today.

Speaking after he cast his ballot, Rivlin calls on all Israelis to vote: “Take the country’s fate in your hands. Come out and vote! This is not just a privilege, but to a large extent a duty.”
