The Labor and Gesher parties declared on Sunday that they will run together in the upcoming election campaign, as they did in the previous election.
Labor-Gesher Chairman Amir Peretz said, "We are the only party that counts people. The connection between us has increased the bloc, and this time, too, we will act responsibly when that is the only consideration at hand. We are committed to a clean election campaign without disqualifications and boycotts of publics and populations. Connecting with an additional party is not on the agenda right now."
