Footage published by 'Kikar HaShabbat' from Likud primary polling stations reveals serious allegations of vote buying: two Haredi voters said they received payment to come to the polls and vote according to candidate lists handed to them in advance. One of them showed the camera a list with candidate numbers in the national list and the Jerusalem district, admitting he didn't know any of them. Another identified Dudi Amsalem as number 103. The interviewer claimed that political figures send lists with money, but the payer was not identified in the footage. The report relays the allegations without verifying them, and notes that the voters do not intend to vote for Likud in the Knesset elections.
