Uri Epstein is elected head of the Sha’ar HaNegev Regional Council with 53.12 percent of the vote following Tuesday’s run-off election.
Several regions of southern Israel held long-delayed municipal elections earlier this month, nine months after most of the country’s municipalities held their own already war-delayed votes.
A second round of voting was held in the Sha’ar HaNegev Regional Council after no candidate could garner at least 40% of the vote.
