On election day, the "Winning Right" headquarters launched a nationwide ground operation aimed at increasing voter turnout among right-wing supporters. Over 4,500 volunteers are expected to participate in cities across Israel, utilizing hundreds of buses and vehicles to encourage participation until polls close. Residents from Judea and Samaria are at the forefront of this effort, deploying to cities nationwide to work alongside other volunteers.

The operation will take place in numerous cities, including Jerusalem, Be'er Sheva, Netanya, Ashkelon, Sderot, Tel Aviv-Yafo, Tiberias, Ramla, Rehovot, Rishon LeZion, and Petah Tikva. The headquarters estimates that approximately 300,000 potential right-wing voters do not typically cast their ballots. Consequently, activists will focus on neighborhoods with high right-wing support but low voter turnout, conducting door-to-door outreach to urge residents to vote.

Yisrael Gantz, Head of the Binyamin Regional Council and Chairman of the Yesha Council, who leads the joint headquarters for the Likud and Religious Zionism parties, stated, "This morning we are deploying with great force on a mission that can decide the election. More than 4,500 volunteers are taking responsibility for the country's future and are going out to bring victory." He added, "The residents of Judea and Samaria are once again standing at the front, along with volunteers from all over the country. We will reach every door and fight for every vote. We have a large public, we have immense power, and today we will turn it into votes. This is our home, this is the future of our children, and we are going out to win."

Alongside Gantz, Yonatan Ahiya, Director General of the Arzenu Movement, and Baruch Crombie are leading the operation. In parallel with the city activities, command centers will operate in Judea and Samaria settlements to increase voter turnout in that region.
