Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met with Moti Lightner, chairman of the 'Haredi Public' party, on Tuesday and asked him to withdraw his party from the upcoming elections. Netanyahu's request was reportedly driven by concerns that the party's participation could siphon votes away from other right-wing factions, a phenomenon often referred to as "burning votes." Lightner, however, rejected the Prime Minister's appeal and refused to pull his party from the race. The 'Haredi Public' party is a new ultra-Orthodox political entity.
