Naftali Bennett and Avigdor Liberman, leader of Yisrael Beiteinu, are launching their respective party lists for the upcoming elections today. Bennett's list is expected to include approximately 40% of former Yesh Atid members, with every position on the list considered crucial given current polling data.
For Liberman's Yisrael Beiteinu, the party has added dozens of candidates beyond its projected number of Knesset seats. A key question is the placement of Dan Illouz, who recently left the Likud party, and whether additional incumbent Knesset members will be excluded from the list, beyond the already known departure of Sharon Nir.
