Israel's Central Elections Committee voted to disqualify the country's two largest Arab-majority political lists from next month's parliamentary election, a move that could leave Palestinian citizens of Israel without their principal representatives in the Knesset.
The Disqualification Votes
The committee voted 18-5 to bar Ra'am, also known as the United Arab List, and 18-5 to bar the Joint List, an alliance of Hadash, Balad and Ta'al. In separate votes, it also disqualified Ofer Cassif and Sami Abu Shehadeh by 18-5 and 31-4 respectively.
Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara opposed barring the two lists and Cassif, arguing the evidence did not meet the legal threshold. However, she supported disqualifying Abu Shehadeh, whose case partly centres on an article he wrote on October 8, 2023, the day after Hamas's attacks on Israel.
Double Standards and Legal Challenges
Petitions to disqualify far-right parties Otzma Yehudit and Religious Zionism were rejected by the committee, prompting accusations of double standards. Human rights advocate Ubai Al-Aboudi said the committee has decided 'not to bar Israeli politicians, parties or lists that are openly calling for the ethnic cleansing and genocide of Palestinians'.
Adalah plans to challenge the decisions in the Supreme Court, which has previously overturned attempts to exclude Arab parties. Cassif called the rulings 'another nail in the coffin of the remnants of democracy' in Israel, while Al-Aboudi said 'It is the first time that all representation has been barred'.
What This Means for the Election
Palestinian citizens of Israel make up about one-fifth of the country's population, and both barred lists rely heavily on their support. In the current 120-seat Knesset, the Hadash-Ta'al alliance holds five seats and Ra'am holds five seats, with a 3.25 percent national vote threshold required to enter parliament.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu remains eligible to run despite an ICC arrest warrant and an ongoing corruption trial. The Supreme Court is expected to review the disqualification decisions next week, with no guarantee it will reverse the committee's votes.
