The Reservists and the Economic Party המילואימניקים והכלכלית

Led by Yoaz Hendel & Yaron Zelekha · over the bar in 3 of 10 polls · running for Broad Zionist unity government

A technical joint list of two parties that say they are both in first place: Yoaz Hendel's Reservists, founded after October 7 around a universal draft and what the state owes the people who carried the war, and Yaron Zelekha's Economic Party, a one-issue campaign against monopolies and importer cartels by the former Accountant General. Agreed on 6 September 2026, hours after Hendel's partnership with Chili Tropper fell apart, and filed the next day with Einat Wilf third. Neither side has published a joint platform. What they announced together is a conscription law passed before any government is formed, a coalition of Zionist parties only, and the cost of living. It sits outside both blocs: Hendel refuses the Haredi parties, which makes a Netanyahu coalition hard for him to join, but has not ruled Netanyahu out.

The list, who comes with them

How this list is picked. Each partner fills its own places: the Reservists' come from a vote of the movement's membership, and the Economic Party sets its own. The two interleave through the top of the list, and each name is tagged with the registration that filed it.
