The three Arab-majority parties are working to finalize a joint Knesset slate for the upcoming elections, according to party sources. Ra'am (the United Arab List) remains outside the alignment, continuing its separate electoral path.
Balad, Hadash, and Ta'al are advancing talks to form a joint electoral list for the coming Knesset elections, without Ra'am. The move revives the unified Arab slate model that has appeared in previous election cycles, though this time the partnership excludes Ra'am, which has historically balanced coalition politics with opposition cooperation. As The Zioneer reported last week, the three parties had already signaled a formal alliance; today's report confirms active steps toward registration. The joint list faces internal negotiation over candidate slots and platform language, and must still be formally submitted to the Central Elections Committee. Ra'am's absence underscores its continued preference for a coalition-oriented approach separate from the opposition bloc.
