01 · THE DISPATCH

Former Knesset member Ram Shefa announced Wednesday he will run in the Democratic Party's primary for a slot on the party's Knesset list. The announcement adds another name to an increasingly crowded primary field.

The former MK is the latest in a series of candidates to declare their bids in recent weeks. As The Zioneer has reported, former MK Emily Moatti, former MK Ali Salalha, and activist Yaya Pink have all announced primary campaigns. The party's primary is scheduled for July 20, and the party says it has already surpassed 75,000 members.

Shefa's specific political platform or policy priorities were not detailed in the announcement.
