Likud MK Avichai Boaron has proposed that the Central Elections Committee establish an official mechanism to transmit real-time voting data to all parties on election day, rather than leaving data collection to party representatives at polling stations, according to N12's Amit Segal.
The proposal, reported by N12's Amit Segal, was raised by MK Avichai Boaron directly to CEC chair Justice Noam Sohlberg. The Likud lawmaker argued that there is no technological or democratic justification to prevent parties from receiving basic real-time turnout data, and that the proposal would preserve voter privacy, ensure equality among parties, and prevent the election day from being managed blindly. The issue of party access to voter data has been a recurring point of contention in recent weeks. Earlier on Thursday, Likud's legal adviser Ilan Bombach called on Justice Sohlberg to cancel a ruling barring party representatives from reporting who has voted at polling stations. MK Boaron's proposal offers an alternative: instead of relying on party representatives to collect data, the CEC itself would operate an official transmission mechanism to all parties. The proposal is currently before Justice Sohlberg.
