Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Minister of Finance Bezalel Smotrich met with hundreds of Religious Zionist rabbis, alongside Yisrael Gantz, Chairman of the Yesha Council and Head of the Benjamin Regional Council. The meeting, initiated by Gantz and Smotrich, aimed to strategize and mobilize hundreds of thousands of right-wing voters to the polls.
Gantz is leading the effort to increase voter turnout for the right-wing bloc and has been appointed to head the campaign. The gathering focused on developing joint operational methods and building a ground operation to connect with voters ahead of the elections.
Later in the day, a large event was scheduled in Jerusalem with Netanyahu, Smotrich, numerous heads of local authorities from Judea and Samaria, and prominent right-wing activists from across the country.
Smotrich stated, "The upcoming elections will decide the future of the State of Israel. Against a government of [Benny] Gantz-Lieberman-Golan that will evacuate communities and establish a Palestinian terror state, we will strengthen the Jewish identity of the country and secure Israel's safety. Together, we continue towards a right-wing victory."
Gantz added, "In an unprecedented move, we have united forces and connected the most important factors in the current election system to mobilize hundreds of thousands of right-wing voters to the polls through public figures. The goal is to prepare together and lead to a great victory for the right."
