The local elections for the major authorities did not surprise, again - voila! news. As expected, in Jerusalem, Be'er Sheva, Rishon Lezion, Petah Tikva and Ashdod the current mayors won the trust of the voters.

In Tel Aviv, after counting more than half of the votes, Ron Huldai is leading with about 50% support, compared to 38% for Orna Barbibai. In Jerusalem, Moshe Leon won by a large margin of 83.1%, thus defeating his deputy Yosef Havilio.
