who is really cheating in the elections?
When there is something to gain, there will always be somebody trying to gain by cheating a little.
The Likud is pushing very hard for the passage of a law about videoing the ballot boxes and polling stations.
Personally, I see nothing wrong with it, as long as no one specific sector is being targeted, but every polling station will have the same status of being videoed at the same time, whether it be the placement of the ballots in the box or whether it be the tallying of the votes.
In the past there probably is no sector that has not been steretyped as being the classic cheaters during elections voting. the Haredim bring out the dead and vote with 120% turnout. The kibbutzim, when they ran the country, brought out the dead to vote and had 120% voter turnout. The Arabs (currently). The Settlers. etc etc
So right now the Likud is claiming the Arabs cheat in the ballot boxes and it needs to be recorded to prevent cheating and for the purpose of compiling evidence. Whether they do or do not I don't know. if the Likud thinks they have a valid claim and have some sort of evidence of cheating, it should have been submitted to the police, the electoral board and the courts and it should be investigated.
The interesting thing is, Kahn 11 is reporting that an investigation into the election cheating has turned up some basic suspicion of spot cheating throughout the country across every sector, with some specific spots of more serious cheating specifically by the Likud and by Shas representatives.
So, while the Likud is claiming the Left is trying to steal the elections by letting [Arab] cheating go unchecked, it is really the Likud and Shas that seem to cheat the most.
