Knesset Secretary Yardena Miller-Horowitz on Wednesday was polling MKs in a vote, calling them one at a time as they responded “for” or “against” to the vote.
Labor party MK Ksenia Svetlova was not present during the vote, yet when her name was called someone shouts “for” in her absence. Horowitz noted what occurred and reported the matter to Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein, who explained the actions of the MK who responded were a violation of the penal code.
An investigation to determine who voted in her place is underway.

It’s a good idea to be going after Labor and the political left. They are easily as corrupt as Likud or Shas.
