The Together (B'Yachad) party, led by Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid, issued an updated Knesset candidate list Sunday evening, The Zioneer reports.
The B'Yachad (Together) party issued an updated version of its Knesset candidate list this evening, Sunday. The specific adjustments to the slate have not yet been disclosed.
Earlier Sunday at 15:35 Jerusalem, the party officially filed its merged slate with election authorities—combining candidates from Yair Lapid's Yesh Atid with those personally selected by party leader Naftali Bennett. At the same time, Bennett unveiled the 20-candidate list and pledged to designate Qatar as an enemy state and dismantle monopolies, as The Zioneer reported. The initial list featured Bennett in first place, Lapid second, followed by Keren Turner and Merav Ben Ari.
The party's candidate roster has been assembled through a series of additions over recent months. On Jun 22, former "After Me!" CEO Amir Strugov joined the list, as The Zioneer reported. On Jun 28, Reserve Major Shahar Varon—a Maglan and paratrooper veteran seriously wounded in Gaza—was added. On Aug 5, Haaretz's Noa Shpigel reported that Yair Ginzburg was promised a realistic spot and that four new women were included on the list. Bennett's party has faced declining poll numbers, reaching a low of 6 seats as The Zioneer noted in its topic profile on Sep 2.
It remains unclear which candidates were added or removed in the updated list published this evening.
