Report of the Moderator James R. Repetti It was quite a year! I postponed the 2020 Annual Town Meeting, originally scheduled for May 4, three times due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. A truncated meeting was finally held outdoors on June 29 at 11 a.m. on the Regional School football field. We considered and voted only upon articles that the Board of Selectmen had determined as being essential to the ongoing operation of the Town. The meeting was adjourned at 11:19 a.m., moments before a major thunderstorm occurred. Many citizens and friends of Dover helped plan and implement the meeting in a manner designed to reduce the risk for attendees. We are very grateful to Dr. Kevin Ban, a resident of Dover, Dr. John Brownstein, an epidemiologist at Harvard Medical School, and the Board of Health for their advice in helping us structure the meeting to minimize the health risk for all attendees. Town Clerk Felicia Hoffman coordinated and implemented their advice in an exemplary manner to ensure safe social distancing for all attendees and those working at the meeting. In addition, Assistant Moderator David Haviland, Police Chief Peter McGowan, and all the con- stables, checkers, counters, pages, registrars, and police officers provided invaluable service in assuring the safety of all attendees.

  • Israeli Election Bulletin | January 15
    Israeli Election Bulletin | January 15 On 23 December 2020 the Knesset was automatically dissolved after the national unity government failed to pass a 2020 state budget. The election will be held on 23 March 2021. For more background on the collapse of the coalition, watch BICOM Director Richard Pater and read this BICOM Morning Brief. BICOM's Poll of Polls Aggregate Polling January 5-15 Many parties such as Momentum, Labour, Veterans, New Economy and Telem are polling under the electoral threshold Two others, Blue and White and Religious Zionism, are polling very close to the threshold (4 seats). If either of them were to fall under it, it would signicantly aect the ability of Netanyahu or his opponents to form a coalition 1/11 Splits, Mergers and Acquisitions We are now in the rst stage of the election process.

  • 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.

Dismissing the claims that such a move — pledged by the premier days before last month’s elections — would “endanger the citizens of Israel,” Netanyahu says that “regions in Judea and Samaria are not just a guarantee of Israel’s security — they are also our patrimony.” “The same ‘experts’ supported the Iran nuclear deal and warned that ‘Bibi is taking a wrong turn and ruining the alliance with America,'” he adds in a tweet.

  • Project Democracy – Fighting for the Ground Rules
    PROJECT DEMOCRACY – FIGHTING FOR THE GROUND RULES CHAPTER 3: GOVERNMENT INSTITUTIONS The danger to democracy in Israel is multi-faceted. Particularly worrisome, two of the central arenas from which these threats arise are the very ones charged with safeguarding democracy: The Knesset (Israeli parliament) and the government. Over the past two years, senior officials have voiced harsh and unprecedented statements directed against human rights organizations, political groups, and minorities, and have made various attempts to narrow their operations. At the same time, a long list of new legislative proposals have been introduced in the Knesset, some of which have been enacted, which clearly harm Israeli democracy and undermine the rights, the status, and the opinions of those who are not part of the current political majority or whom the majority wishes to shy away from. It is important to emphasize that these legislative initiatives are not only private proposals introduced by individual MKs, but bills that have, in some cases, received the support of the government and in other cases have even been introduced by the government itself. Additionally, recent years have seen the continued erosion of checks and balances between branches of government, a basic democratic principle that is vital for the survival of any democracy . There have been serious defects in the legislative process, and legislation has been introduced that would strengthen the powers of the government and weaken those of the opposition, which represents Israel's minority voices. Another dangerous phenomenon is the continued undermining of the status of the judiciary branch.
