Amid high voter turnout in the 26th Knesset elections, standing at approximately 67%, the Reservists and Economic Party, led by Yoaz Handel and Prof. Yaron Zalicha, is closely monitoring the data. The high participation rate may affect the number of votes needed to cross the electoral threshold, which stands at 3.25% of valid votes. The party identified an opportunity in Benny Gantz's withdrawal from the race and worked to adopt activists and voters left without a political home. Prominent field activists from Blue and White are moving to operate within the party, and last week Handel and Zalicha met with leaders of the Blue and White Ethiopian community headquarters, who announced their support.
