The fringe party Black Color, which garnered a few thousand votes in the recent election, has claimed that its electoral power translates to three to four Knesset seats. The party asserts that this bloc of voters, representing its potential support, ultimately abstained from voting for any of the established Haredi parties. Black Color contends that these voters, who they believe would have supported them, remained home instead of casting ballots for existing ultra-Orthodox political factions.
