3 Arab parties to run together, but could this save Netanyahu?

The Arab Hadash, Ta’al and Balad parties announced on Wednesday that they have agreed to run on a joint slate in the upcoming Knesset election.

Hadash chair Yousef Jabareen will head the list, followed by Ta’al head Ahmad Tibi and Balad chair Sami Abou Shahadeh.

Ra’am, headed by Mansour Abbas, will run separately.

Polls show that Arab Israelis would be more likely to vote in higher numbers if the parties representing them run together as opposed to splintering into several factions.
