Religious activists from the Otzma Yehudit party held a protest outside the Tel Aviv home of Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara on Tuesday evening. The demonstration was part of the party's election campaign. Otzma Yehudit claims that votes cast for lists that do not pass the electoral threshold risk being wasted, potentially impacting the distribution of Knesset seats.

To illustrate this point, the activists presented a symbolic "gift" to the Attorney General. They stated, "We came to give Gali a 'gift', the votes of the ultra-Orthodox who intend to vote for parties that do not pass the electoral threshold and throw their votes away." According to the activists, votes that are not counted towards seat allocation are a political gift to the Attorney General.
