Likud Cancels Reserved-Slate Vote After Court Injunction

Likud canceled Thursday's Central Committee vote on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Haim Katz's reserved-slate proposal after the Lod District Court issued an injunction. The ballot would have asked members to grant the party chairman personal reserved positions and approve the primary regulations. Petitioners from the Social Forum alongside the National Histadrut argued that a competing proposal approved by Likud's Constitution Committee had been omitted and sought to stop voting until it was also presented. The cancellation left the Katz-Netanyahu framework without the Central Committee vote scheduled for July 16, while the legal dispute over the competing ballot proposal remained unresolved.
