Israel’s Labor party will conduct a revote today for the party’s next chairman. The winner also becomes the next Prime Ministerial candidate for Labor. The initial vote, which took place on September 4, was surrounded with controversy. Knesset Speaker Avraham Burg had claimed victory over Defense Minister Binyamin Ben-Eliezer in what appeared to be one of the closest internal party votes in the nation’s history. However, Ben-Eliezer’s camp alleged that forgeries in the voting took place at 41 polling stations throughout the Druze sectors. In one voting station, there were more ballots cast than eligible voters. The Druze community that brought Burg the victory in the September 4 vote is boycotting today’s runoff, and observers are certain that Ben-Eliezer will become the party’s next leader.
