Editorial illustration generated by baba News, not a photograph of the event.

The "Israel Beiteinu" and "Together" parties have signed a surplus vote-sharing agreement ahead of the upcoming elections. Similarly, the "Yesh!" and "Democrats" parties have also reached a similar agreement.

According to a statement from Benny Gantz's "National Unity" party, the consolidation of the "change bloc" into four parties facilitated these mutual agreements. This move is seen as a lesson learned from previous election cycles.

The "National Unity" party expressed satisfaction that every vote cast by Israelis seeking change and the replacement of the government following the October 7th events will now go to one of the "change parties," thereby preventing wasted votes.
