The voting for the 11th President of the State of Israel are taking place right now in the Knesset.

Unlike the elections for the Knesset, in which all Israeli citizens vote and which decides the next Prime Minister, in the elections for President only the Members of Knesset vote.

The two candidates are Yitzchak Herzog- head of the Jewish Agency, former leader of the Labor Party and son of former President Chaim Herzog, and Miriam Peretz- a beloved public figure and Israel Prize Winner, who lost her two IDF soldier sons in Israeli wars and lectures around the world about empowerment, leadership and faith.

Stay tuned for the results and to find out who will be the next President of Israel!
