A video released on election day shows a Haredi voter changing his intended vote from Yaron Zelekha's Economic Party to Degel HaTorah after consulting with Rabbi Moshe Hillel Hirsch, a prominent Rosh Yeshiva. The voter initially approached Rabbi Hirsch's grandson, stating his intention to vote for Zelekha and seeking a blessing for good livelihood. However, the voter clarified that he was in fact canceling his own opinion and following the directives of the Rosh Yeshiva and other great rabbis, and would vote for Degel HaTorah. The grandson then requested a blessing for the voter. Rabbi Hirsch responded with a warm blessing for success in all matters, including livelihood and joy.
