A report on Channel 14 addresses the issue of Israelis voting from abroad in Israeli elections. The report presents a video of an Israeli woman who came specifically from Atlanta to vote, after not living in the country for 40 years. She says: "The situation is terrible, this is home." The report raises a question about the right of those who do not contend with the Israeli reality on a daily basis to influence its future. It notes that the elections affect the cost of living, security, taxes, and health of Israeli residents, while voters abroad do not bear the consequences. The report concludes with the question of whether home is the place one feels connected to or also the place where one lives and pays the price.
