                  Netanyahu urges Jerusalemites to get out and vote for Elkin in last-minute plea

                  30.10.2018, Israel

                  In a recorded statement sent out in the final hour of the campaign, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu calls on Jerusalemites who have not voted to support Ze’ev Elkin.

                  “Go and vote. The battle is tight. I say this as a Jerusalemite. You need a person like Minister Ze’ev Elkin, a very talented man who has done a lot for Jerusalem and will do more.” 

                  Ze’ev Elkin was born Vladimir Borisovich Elkin to a secular Jewish family in Kharkiv, in the Ukrainian SSR of the Soviet Union (now Ukraine) in 1971.
