Public proposals, linked sources, and explicit research gaps. English draft for editorial review.

Research draft · 24 October 2026 · Human editorial review pending

This issue-by-issue comparison records public proposals that Torekh has located so far. It is a partial research draft: evidence is included for 7 of the guide’s 35 active lists. Missing entries mean not yet researched, not that a list has no position. The source set is uneven and must be expanded before a balanced final comparison is published.

The same questions for every list

  1. Which prices or household costs does the plan target?
  2. What would change in competition, imports, taxes or public services?
  3. Who benefits, who pays, and what measurable timetable is provided?

The short positions below may answer only part of these questions. We do not turn a broad slogan into a detailed policy. A component party’s statement is identified as such and is not assumed to be an agreed platform of the combined electoral list.

How to assess the evidence

These summaries describe what a source says, not Torekh’s endorsement. Official campaign publications establish a stated intention; they do not establish legal validity, factual accuracy of the campaign’s diagnosis, successful implementation or coalition agreement. Where this draft carries forward a reply from our Abu Ali Express compilation, the source note identifies that route and the remaining source-language check. The disavowed Hendel–Zelikha civic submission is excluded; only the replacement identified in the compilation is used.

Before publishing, Jennifer Love should check the original passages and context, update or date each source, expand missing-party coverage, audit relevant Knesset votes, laws and budgets, distinguish list-wide from individual or component positions, and sign off the English summary. Hebrew and Arabic versions require their own review; neither translation is presented here as reviewed.

List names and activity status follow Torekh’s current guide roster; official Hebrew names and ballot letters are retained, and English names are reading aids. Explore the party cards · Read the party-replies compilation · Official voting information
