Gamliel appeals Likud recount, alleges 'contaminated' vote count in Be'er Yaakov
The Likud announced on Tuesday that it would conduct a recount of the ballot boxes from Be’er Ya’akov after Gamliel appealed to the party’s Supreme Court.
Gila Gamliel, Innovation, Science, and Technology Minister, has filed a police complaint against Likud Director General David Sharan, MK Haim Katz, and a security guard regarding the decision to recount Likud primary ballots from Be'er Yaakov. The complaint alleges that the ballot boxes were contaminated due to being in Likud management's possession for eight days after counting and uploading results to the database.
Gamliel argues that this delay could harm her candidacy, pushing her into the fourth tier of the Likud's Knesset list, potentially allowing Eti Atiya to replace her. The Likud announced it would conduct a recount after Gamliel's appeal to the party's Supreme Court, requesting an injunction preventing the opening of a ballot box in Be'er Yaakov for a recount.
