An investigation by ynet reveals that the Central Elections Committee and its chairman, Supreme Court Deputy President Noam Solberg, are under a coordinated attack from coalition supporters, aimed at laying the groundwork for claims that 'the elections were stolen.' The organization 'Fake Reporter' analyzed thousands of accounts on X and found a sharp rise in negative discourse against Solberg since his appointment, including accusations of bias in favor of the left and mockery of his religious identity. The report notes that the Prime Minister's son, Yair Netanyahu, is among the prominent influencers spreading the criticism. Fake Reporter founder Achiya Schatz explains that this is an attempt to undermine the legitimacy of election results. In contrast, attorney Ilan Bombach, the legal advisor of Likud, criticizes the committee, alleging lax enforcement against organizations that funnel money without disclosure.
