Islamic Jihad will hold its first elections in the Palestinian Authority-assigned areas of Judea and Samaria since it was established in the mid 1970's, according to sources in the terror organization who were cited, Tuesday, by the London-based Ash-Sharq Il-Awsat daily.

The sources said the balloting will take place in the upcoming months and be modelled after polls in the Fatah and Hamas factions.
