The Central Elections Committee announced on Sunday, October 25, 2026, that the "Achai Tnuatenu of Rabbi Yoram Abergil" list will not compete in the upcoming Knesset elections. This decision follows the legal resignation of all candidates on the party's slate. The party's ballot symbol was "Zvi" (צבי). Election officials have been instructed to ensure that the party's ballots are not distributed at polling stations. The ballot will be marked with an 'X' on posters and notices displaying the voting options. These directives also apply to military polling stations, with necessary adjustments. The committee clarified that any ballots found for this party during the vote count, whether printed or handwritten, will be considered invalid. This also applies to votes already cast at Israeli diplomatic missions abroad or within the military.
