Hg"r on Hgr"d Lau: "I am doing everything for his election"

The Lau family arrived at Hgr"o's home on 45 Hakablan Street, to receive the blessing and support from the President of the Council of Torah Sages for the candidacy of Rabbi of Modiin, Rabbi David Lau, for Ashkenazi chief rabbi.

Amongst them: Rabbi Yisrael Meir Lau Rabbi of Tel Aviv - Jaffa, Rabbi Yitzchak Ralbag member of the Chief Rabbinate Council, and the candidate himself - Rabbi David Lau.

Hgray"l Steinman had given his blessing for nomination and ordered Degel Hatorah "to support him as a candidate, despite the fact that Rabbi Kook and Rabbi Sherman recently tried to use their influence that Hgray"l will support Rabbi Shapira, and event went to his home, but Hgray"l ordered to support Rabbi Lau.

Meanwhile, in recent weeks there were constant clarifications from Hgray"l, because the rumors according to which Degel HaTorah has a preference for those who have a candidate for Shas Sephardi chief rabbi - have no dawn and Hgray'l will support any candidate whom Hgr"o decides.

Once Rabbi Yitzchak Yosef was selected, he was granted support by Degel HaTorah, when, at the same time, Shas supports Rabbi Lau.

Other rabbis from the Electoral College were also invited today to Hgr"o.
Later in the day Rabbi Eliyahu Abergel will come as a challenger to Hgr'o Yosef, after being invited to come to the house. Goal: to persuade him to remove his candidacy.

It seems that after the approval certificate of fitness of Rabbi Yitzchak Yosef at the Chief Rabbinate Council at noon today, will also remove Rabbi Yehuda Deri, Rabbi of Be'er Sheva, and the candidacy and will support the candidacy of Harav Ovadia Yosef.

At 14:00 the Rabbinate's Council convened, and re-awarded certificate of fitness to Rabbi Yitzchak Yosef.
