  • Israel and Overseas: Israeli Election Primer 2015 (As Of, January 27, 2015) Elections • in Israel, Elections for the Knesset A
    Israel and Overseas: Israeli Election Primer 2015 (As of, January 27, 2015) Elections In Israel, elections for the Knesset are held at least every four years. As is frequently the case, the outgoing government coalition collapsed due to disagreements between the parties. As a result, the Knesset fell significantly short of seeing out its full four year term. Knesset elections in Israel will now be held on March 17, 2015, slightly over two years since the last time that this occurred. The Basics of the Israeli Electoral System All Israeli citizens above the age of 18 and currently in the country are eligible to vote. Voters simply select one political party. Votes are tallied and each party is then basically awarded the same percentage of Knesset seats as the percentage of votes that it received. So a party that wins 10% of total votes, receives 10% of the seats in the Knesset (In other words, they would win 12, out of a total of 120 seats). To discourage small parties, the law was recently amended and now the votes of any party that does not win at least 3.25% of the total (probably around 130,000 votes) are completely discarded and that party will not receive any seats. (Until recently, the “electoral threshold,” as it is known, was only 2%). For the upcoming elections, by January 29, each party must submit a numbered list of its candidates, which cannot later be altered. So a party that receives 10 seats will send to the Knesset the top 10 people listed on its pre-submitted list.

    El-or/Reserved Seats/Chapter 2/page 137 CHAPTER TWO WHO AM I SUPPOSED TO BE? STORIES OF PERSONAL TRANSFORMATION PROLOGUE 1 EVERY WEDNESDAY It was 10:25 when I parked my car. HaYarkon Street began to fill up. Most of the cars were old ones, and many were plastered with bumper stickers. Some displayed the Na-Nah-Nahma-Nahman Mi-Oman mantra of the Bratislaver Hasidim. Others asked “What, you haven’t become religious yet?” and still others proclaimed “You can’t make a million people shut up.” A young couple emerged from a Subaru. He drew a kipah from his pocket and put it on his head. She wore a tight skirt that reached down below her knees, and stylish sandals without socks. Her hair was loose, and she had a knapsack on her back. They parted at the entrance to the yeshiva. He went in the main door, to the central hall, while she, and I, walked around the back, to the women’s entrance. Not many women were there yet—only about forty. I knew from experience, however, that the lower auditorium, which served during the day as the yeshiva’s dining hall, would slowly fill up. The ramp leading down to the back entrance was dimly lit. Actually the back access drive to the building, it was lined with piles of crates, wooden palettes, and discarded yeshiva gear. The foyer leading into the lower hall had been converted into a small religious emporium. Its shelves were packed with volumes of instruction, children’s books in versions appropriate for Haredi homes, decoratively bound Books of El-or/Reserved Seats/Chapter 2/page 138 Psalms, head kerchiefs, hats, gifts for the Jewish home, candlesticks, pictures of rabbis.
