Official summary of the law (Knesset)

The elections for the 24th Knesset were held during a unique period: 4 election campaigns held in close succession within less than two years, alongside the coronavirus crisis. Against this backdrop, ahead of the elections for the 24th Knesset, several changes relating to the elections were made, including: shortening the deadline for party registration, establishing that public authorities may not prevent their employees from working for the elections committee, establishing special polling stations for coronavirus patients, those in isolation, polling stations in nursing homes and in institutions for people with mobility impairments, and flexibility regarding tenders for the Central Elections Committee so that it could prepare quickly for the elections. In addition, the Law temporarily amends the arrangements for loans to parties in order to adapt them to the proximity of the election campaigns, and eases their ability to receive additional loans while freezing debt repayment, so that they can finance the election campaign.
