Municipal elections took place in Israel for the first time on 14 November 1950. These elections were conducted in a matter similar to legislative elections, and turnout stood at approximately 80%.[1] Due to pressure from the ruling party, Mapai, the voting age was lowered from 21 to 18. Mapai ran under the name 'the Histadrut list', which received criticism from Mapam. All religious parties ran as part of the United Religious Front. The General Zionists made significant gains when compared to their legislative power.[2]
Mayors before the election had been chosen during the mandatory period.[2] The elections were dominated by national parties, but some participating lists were local lists, who only participated in elections held in their own municipality.[3]
