This was the most empty voting center I’ve been to for years.  We had no wait and there were few people after me.  Perhaps it is hard to turn our attention from the national situation to the municipal ones.  So many issues keep pouring out daily.  So much that reverses the image of the brilliant masterful Israelis.  

What we have instead is a new ideal – the interdependent society that operates outside official organizations.  It’s the old socialism emerging, and elections don’t matter to the society, just the security.
