Likud has alleged election theft after the recent Israeli vote, filing complaints about Arab voters and seeking a probe briefing before official results. Haaretz reviewed 700 complaints filed on Likud's behalf and found that only about a fifth concerned matters that could affect the vote, with just five alleging bribery and only one including concrete details and documentation. Haaretz also reported that Shin Bet chief David Zini initially wanted election results delayed over alleged foreign influence, changing his mind several days after the vote once told drastic steps required solid evidence. Election chief has said the vote is valid, and Haaretz columnists criticized the claims as a conspiracy effort.
