Low Arab turnout predicted in next election
Newsrael News Desk 01.07.2022
Only 40% of Israeli Arabs are estimated to come to election polls.
Experts predict a significantly lower turnout in November elections among Arab Israelis, who grew disappointed with Ra’am party and the Joint List bloc in the last two years.
In 2020 nearly 65 percent of eligible Arab voters took to the polls to secure a record of 15 seats for the four Arab parties running as the Joint List, in Israel's parliament, the Knesset. However, the next elections will see only 40 percent of Arab Israelis casting their vote, The Times of Israel reported on Thursday.
