Israel Election Committee to Meet at 19:15 on Extending Poll Closing Time

An unscheduled committee meeting on polling hours is a procedural signal worth noting: extensions are typically tied to turnout or logistical strain, though the report offers no stated reason, so the motive remains unconfirmed. The practical effect is narrow but real — it shapes how long voters have and, by extension, when credible turnout figures and exit-polling can be read. Whether the committee actually extends hours, and the explanation it gives, is the open question.
