Yair Netanyahu, son of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has issued a strong public appeal on social media urging right-wing voters not to cast ballots for smaller parties that are unlikely to pass the electoral threshold. This comes amid heightened pressure within the right-wing camp following Benny Gantz's withdrawal from the Knesset race and efforts by the opposition bloc to consolidate votes.
Netanyahu specifically named several parties and figures, including Winter, Avi Maoz of Noam, and two new Haredi parties, stating that "in no poll and in no scenario" will they pass the electoral threshold. He warned that "a right-winger who votes for them is burning his vote and throwing it in the trash."
He further cautioned that such wasted votes could significantly impact the balance of power between political blocs. Netanyahu asserted that by voting for these small parties, individuals would effectively be "giving their vote to a Muslim Brotherhood government and Yair Golan, which will establish Palestine, persecute the right, and cause an existential danger to the country."
Additionally, Netanyahu addressed the candidacy of Yaron Zehlikha, claiming he also would not pass the threshold. He characterized Zehlikha as a "left-wing person who voted Meretz" and suggested that if he did pass, he would support the same "Muslim Brotherhood government and Yair Golan."
Concluding his appeal, Netanyahu implored right-wing voters to exercise discretion at the ballot box, stating, "Right-wing people, do not vote for them if the survival of the country is important to you."
