One voice is a small light

Chen Artzi Sror calls on people to vote in the upcoming elections. The column rejects excuses such as lack of knowledge or the feeling that one's voice doesn't matter, and reminds that there are also good public servants in politics worthy of trust. The article does not mention specific candidates or parties.

With polling stations set to open in a week for the 2026 elections, Chen Artzi Sror publishes an opinion column urging citizens to overcome despair and go vote. The writer describes the emotional burden of being Israeli – military service, taxes, security uncertainty – but emphasizes that voting is a moment of real power to shape the future. She dismisses common excuses: 'Don't understand politics? Start understanding,' 'No one to vote for? Remember that politics is the art of the possible,' and 'They're all corrupt? That's simply not true.' The column concludes with a call to identify 'the good public servants' and give them your vote, and then 'you can happily go to the beach.' The article does not mention specific candidates, parties, or issues.
