Netanyahu: Blue and white violated appointments (Walla! NEWS system)

At the height of the most severe economic crisis in its history, the State of Israel is running in the elections again, for the fourth time in two years.

The direct and immediate costs of the election are estimated at NIS 2.7 billion.

Costs join the budget deficit reached by the government since the beginning of the year of about NIS 136 billion.



The exact estimate of the cost of the voter day can only be known close to the election.

The reason for this lies in the uncertainty in which the economy finds itself during the corona period - at this stage it is not known what restrictions the economy will have, if any, and how many people will have to vote in isolated polling stations.

According to initial estimates, the fourth election campaign in two years will cost close to NIS 3 billion.

Party funding budget - NIS 200-180 million The



parties' funding budget depends on the number of lists that will run for the 24th Knesset.

The figure is determined on the day the candidates are presented to the Election Committee.

Assuming that about 10 budget lists compete, it will range from NIS 180 million to NIS 200 million.



Budget of the Election Committee - NIS 500 million The



budget of the Election Committee for the 23rd Knesset was about NIS 400 million, to which must be added additional costs for the changes required during the corona period, for example, adding and protecting polling stations - these may reach an estimated 100 a million shekels.

The Election Commission still does not know how to estimate the final amount that will be required because it is not known what the number of patients and isolates will be.
