      Orlev: MKs Agreed on Primaries ‘Trick’


      MK Zevulun Orlev (Jewish Home) accused his fellow Jewish Home MKs of “hypocrisy” Tuesday after both criticized him for suggesting that the party’s primary voting all be held on a single day. MK Uri Orbach and Minister Daniel Hershkowitz, who now condemn the plan as a political trick, originally opposed the plan to split the primary voting to multiple days, he said.

      The proposed change would see party members vote for both a party chairman and the MKs on the list at the same time.
