The armored vehicles - and Benny Gantz's chances of entering the Knesset: The day after the lists close
A Walla political podcast discusses the significance of the closing of the Knesset lists, focusing on Benny Gantz's chances of passing the electoral threshold, the impact of Ofer Winter on the political map, and the possibility of a union between Yair Golan and Avigdor Lieberman based on opposition to Netanyahu. The participants, young people representing a broad political spectrum, also discuss the electoral power of 640,000 young voters who are expected to decide the election.
Walla's "The Next Voice" podcast, hosted by Yehuda Schlesinger, brings together three young people representing a broad political spectrum: Ruth Shalev (chair of Blue and White youth), Zahavit Einstein (Ben Gvir's social media manager), and Itai Stern (activist in "The Democrats"). They discuss the significance of the closing of the Knesset lists, focusing on Benny Gantz's chances of passing the electoral threshold and the question of whether he will withdraw before election day. Also examined is the influence of Ofer Winter on the political map and the possibility that he will join the change bloc. The discussion also touches on the ideological gaps between Yair Golan and Avigdor Lieberman, and whether their shared desire to oust Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu overrides them. The episode notes that on October 27, approximately 640,000 young people aged 18 to 22 will vote for the first time, an electoral force equivalent to 15 to 17 seats, which could decide the identity of the prime minister and the coalition.
