On Election Day for the 26th Knesset, approximately 1,500 Chabad emissaries are conducting a large-scale initiative across Israel, primarily near polling stations, inviting the public to don tefillin. Chabad emissaries have set up booths in public areas, with a focus on polling station vicinities, to encourage passersby to fulfill the mitzvah of laying tefillin. This effort is supported by tens of thousands of Chabad followers who are utilizing the day off to reach a broad audience. An emissary from the central region reported a significant public response, with individuals from diverse backgrounds visiting the tefillin booths. The initiative extends beyond polling stations, with emissaries engaging students, youth, hospital patients, the elderly, and new immigrants. Concurrently, Chabad houses nationwide are holding expanded Torah classes. The Chabad media department has also launched a special publication emphasizing unity with the slogan, "Today and every day I also choose the love of Israel, I love every Jew." This campaign aims to highlight common ground among the public, especially on an election day often marked by political divisions, reminding people that despite differences, "we are all one nation, one family." The effort combines Chabad's traditional tefillin-laying activity with a public message promoting connection among all Jews, regardless of their voting choices. Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Ahronov, Chairman of Young Chabad and the Association of Chabad Chasidim, stated that emissaries are fulfilling the Rebbe's directive to "vote and influence" while simultaneously strengthening Chabad's operations to bring every Jew closer to God, particularly emphasizing unity and love for Israel on this day.
