"All my life I voted Likud. I can't move my hand, even when there's anger at Bibi"

In Israel Hayom's 'Skipping a Generation' format, grandmother Malka Levi Eliahu and her granddaughter Or Yaish, residents of Ness Ziona, met for a conversation about generational gaps, the cost of living, the situation in the north, and voting in elections. Malka, who has voted Likud all her life, says she cannot move her hand even when she was angry at Netanyahu, while Or points to housing difficulties and calls for more respectful discourse in politics.

In an article within Israel Hayom's 'Skipping a Generation' format, grandmother Malka Levi Eliahu and her granddaughter Or Yaish, both residents of Ness Ziona, met for a conversation about generational gaps, the state of the country, and considerations in voting. Malka, who immigrated from Yemen in 1949, worked as a municipal inspector and was called 'the sheriff of Ness Ziona,' has voted Likud since Menachem Begin, and says she cannot move her hand even when she was angry at Netanyahu. Or, 25, struggles to find housing and describes a 40-meter studio in a half-basement for four thousand shekels. The two disagree on issues such as caring for parents, the cost of living, and the situation in the north. Or calls for more respectful discourse in politics, and says she voted for Bennett in 2021 and Ben Gvir in 2022. Malka expresses a sharp stance against the Haredim, and Or condemns her words. The conversation also touches on personal topics like divorce and ethnic discrimination.
