Ballots for the Quarantined

By Micah Halpern
I've Been Thinking:
On March 2nd Israel will have their third national election. That's less than two weeks away.

The election is facing some unexpected complications.

One such complication is the Coronavirus. So, how does the Coronavirus impact the Israeli election? Israelis love to travel. And now, because of the virus, all travelers on flights coming from China, Thailand and other Far East countries must be quarantined for 14 days.

That means that those Israeli citizens would not be allowed out of quarantine in time to vote on March 2nd.

To solve this issue the government has decided to deliver Israel’s famous blue ballot boxes to the quarantine centers. This way everyone who wants to vote, can vote.
