Following the closing of polling stations, the race to secure recommendations for the Israeli President will commence. A key factor in the President's decision may be the endorsements from Arab parties, including Ra'am. According to a report by political commentator Amit Segal on Channel 12 News, Ra'am party chairman Mansour Abbas intends to recommend whomever the "Change Bloc" decides upon. Abbas views himself as part of this bloc and considers his recommendation a contribution to its efforts.
However, Abbas is also preparing for a scenario where the Change Bloc fails to unite behind a single candidate. In such an event, he is ready to make the decision himself. Abbas has indicated that if no consensus candidate emerges, he will choose based on who he believes has the best chance of forming a government.
