TEL AVIVA new political party called ‘A Place for Us All’ is entering Israel’s upcoming election. The new party wants to fix this by speaking directly to young people who usually stay home on Election Day. They point out that a party must reach a specific vote threshold to enter parliament. The founders of the new party claim they will bring in totally new voters rather than divide existing ones. Electoral threshold risk: Critics and political analysts warn that because Israel enforces a strict 3.25% vote threshold to enter parliament, an untested fringe party risks wasting precious anti-government votes if it fails to clear the bar.
