Illustration of municipal ballot papers set to be used in 2023. Yellow ballots will be used to elect the authority's leader while white ones will be used to elect its council

Municipal elections in Israel are scheduled for 30 January 2024. In accordance with changes made in 2018, election day will be a paid day off work. All municipalities, local councils and regional councils will be up for election, as will their leaders. Top-two runoffs will be held on 13 February in all localities where no leadership candidate won 40% or more of the vote in the first round.Шаблон:Citation needed

The elections were originally scheduled for 31 October 2023, but were postponed by the Knesset due to the Israel–Hamas war, in a law that allows one more postponement to 27 February, subject to 80 Knesset members additional approval. Finance Minister and leader of the Religious Zionist Party Bezalel Smotrich requested that the elections be further postponed due to the number of candidates from his party that are serving in the IDF Reserves.

Voters in municipalities and local councils choose their leader and council in two separate ballots that are colored yellow and white respectively. Voters in regional councils also vote for a local committee using ballots that are colored blue. Blue ballots are also used for borough committees in cases in which they exist. All elected councilors and council leaders assume office 21 days after the election.Шаблон:Citation needed

Eligibility

All Israeli citizens and permanent residents who are 17 or older are eligible to vote on election day, unlike legislative elections, where only Israeli citizens who are 18 or older are eligible to vote.

Voters are only allowed to vote in the locality in which they are registered 40 days before the election.Шаблон:Better source needed Individuals who were registered in a different locality in the 18-month period preceding the election will not be eligible to vote.Шаблон:Better source needed

Background and preparatory measures

The elections will primarily concern local and national issues, and most lists set to compete will be local.Шаблон:Citation needed

The elections were preceded by a period of political deadlock which began in 2019 and resulted in five legislative elections over the course of three years. Several new political parties have formed since the 2018 elections, such as the National Unity Party, while existing parties with local affiliates have either lost their seats in the Knesset (such as the Jewish Home, Meretz and the Green Party), or dissolved entirely (such as Kulanu).Шаблон:Update inlineШаблон:Citation needed

Municipal lists are to be submitted between 27 and 28 September 2023.
