Ahead of the upcoming elections, Lod Mayor Yair Ravivo and Samaria Regional Council Head Yossi Dagan announced a joint effort to mobilize voters. Hundreds of volunteers from Samaria will travel to Lod on election day to encourage supporters of the "national camp" to cast their ballots. The initiative stems from a request by Ravivo to Dagan, asking him to rally residents from Samaria and supporters of settlement to aid in ground operations in the city.

This collaboration revives a partnership between the two leaders from the previous election cycle four years ago, under a project called V22. The new initiative, named V26, will operate in coordination with the central campaign headquarters. The volunteers are expected to go door-to-door in Lod on election day, aiming to increase voter turnout.

Ravivo expressed gratitude for Dagan's responsiveness, stating, "I thank my dear friend Yossi Dagan for responding to my request and for his willingness to come to Lod again with our friends from Samaria. Our friendship and cooperation have lasted for many years, and I appreciate the mobilization and the spirit of volunteering, which will ensure, God willing, the victory of the right in the elections."

Dagan highlighted the connection between Samaria and Lod, calling Ravivo a "personal friend and partner for many years." He added, "The connection between Samaria and Lod is a connection of friendship, mutual responsibility, and love for the land. I gladly accepted his request to come to Lod again with my friends from Samaria." Dagan detailed the plan: "Hundreds will come to go door-to-door and encourage the city's residents to vote for the national camp; we are all working together and in full coordination with the central headquarters to achieve victory."
