Two days before the upcoming elections, Roni Urbach, son of the late minister and Knesset member Uri Urbach, publicly announced his support for former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett and the 'Achad' (Achdut) party list. Urbach stated on social media that he is proud to vote for Bennett and the 'Achad' party because "it is time for a leader who cares about the country." He described Bennett as an experienced manager with capabilities, someone who knows how to connect and compromise, and work seriously with diverse and talented people for the good of the country. Urbach also noted his personal acquaintance with Bennett, calling him a good, truly Zionist, caring, and diligent person. He added that the 'Achad' list includes many Knesset members who would welcome the opportunity to work with the best minds to improve and strengthen life in Israel.
Urbach addressed concerns within the Religious Zionist camp regarding complex political alliances and sharply criticized the current coalition. "I am not afraid to go together with the 'left' as I am terrified of continuing to fuel the coalition that calls itself 'the right' and leads us from one major disaster to new existential dangers every morning," he wrote. He concluded by stating, "There is much to save and improve here, which is why I am voting only for Bennett - Achad."
The post was accompanied by a photo of Bennett visiting the Urbach family home during election day in 2015, which occurred within 30 days of his father's passing.
