The Likud Constitution Committee has postponed its debate on party primaries to Thursday at 17:30, following legal developments and a scheduled Jerusalem District Court hearing tomorrow at 12:00, party sources report.
The Likud Constitution Committee has postponed its scheduled debate on primary election regulations to Thursday at 17:30, according to a Sunday afternoon party announcement. The delay follows legal developments that have shifted the political landscape within the party, including a Jerusalem District Court hearing set for Monday at noon. This is the latest development in an ongoing internal Likud struggle over the primary election mechanism. As The Zioneer reported earlier this month, Committee chairman Haim Katz had summoned a meeting for Tuesday in an attempt to force a primary vote, bypassing efforts by some in the party to use an arranging committee that would enable Prime Minister Netanyahu to reshape the list without a direct vote. The Sunday delay signals continued maneuvering ahead of Thursday's session.
