Democrats Chairman Yair Golan responded to the suspected enemy state interference in the elections, saying 'Netanyahu is trying to undermine the election results through an ugly delegitimization campaign against the public's will, and against the Arab public in particular.' Golan added: 'Every genuine suspicion of harming election integrity must be investigated thoroughly, and we must not forget - the most serious betrayal and Qatari involvement occurred in Netanyahu's office. We are still waiting for Orich to be fired. Until then, let Netanyahu continue barking. We will continue working. The public fired him. We will make sure he vacates the chair.'
