Likud officials push Netanyahu to reserve spot for Yoseph Haddad amid Ofer Winter party concerns
Likud officials fear that a new right-wing party led by Brig.-Gen. (res.) Ofer Winter could split the bloc’s vote, particularly if it fails to cross the electoral threshold.
Senior Likud officials are urging Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to reserve a spot for Yoseph Haddad on the party's Knesset list. This move aims to prevent Haddad from joining a new party being formed by Brig.-Gen. (res.) Ofer Winter, which could split the right-wing vote. Likud is concerned that a Winter-led party, potentially including Haddad, could draw votes from the right bloc and fail to cross the electoral threshold, thus weakening the entire right-wing. Haddad has been in talks with Winter and is considering entering politics, having previously stated he is "considering entering politics." Winter plans to announce his independent party soon.
