Israel: Arab Israeli voters could prove decisive in the upcoming elections
Key Points
In Israel’s election the vote of Arab Israeli citizens could be crucial for the outcome and fate of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu who is standing for re-election. Traditionally voting turnout is lower among Arab Israelis than among the rest of the population. But this time some feel it’s their duty more than ever to cast their ballot given the policies and wars undertaken by Netanyahu.
