Hadar Muchtar

After more than two years of working on the ground, thousands of kilometers between party members and activists, and a campaign designed to get her on the Likud list, Hadar Muchtar found herself out of the primaries at the moment of truth. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu decided not to shorten her qualifying period, and she remained out of the race.

Until a few days ago, she was confident that her name would appear on the Likud party list, but she was ultimately disqualified from the primaries. Consequently, the young politician decided to take a break and left the country.

After months of an intensive campaign in an attempt to be elected to the Likud list for the Knesset, Hadar Muchtar was forced to watch the primaries take place without her and left for Georgia. According to her spokesperson, the decision to fly was made following the blow she suffered after not receiving the seniority reduction that would have allowed her to run.

Mati Tuchfeld estimates that Hadar Muchtar will not be able to run in the Likud primaries and warns of a legal ruling that could further crowd the list. At the same time, the ultra-Orthodox parties are dealing with pressure from within and without.

Hadar Muchtar, who is preparing to run in the Likud primaries and has been trying to overcome the "waiting period" obstacle, held quiet efforts in parallel to integrate into the Otzma Yehudit list. The contacts were made discreetly, while publicly she continues to position herself as part of Likud.

The young politician, currently running in the Likud party primaries, continues her efforts to secure a seat in the next Knesset. It has emerged that alongside her activities within Likud, she has been exploring the possibility of joining another party.

Journalist Barak Seri cynically attacks Hadar Muchtar following Benjamin Netanyahu's decision not to shorten her qualifying period in Likud, which prevents her from running in the party's primaries.

Likud management has postponed the deadline for deciding on the reduction of tenure requirements for non-member candidates running in the primaries. Delays stemming from Likud tribunal rulings and District Court petitions have pushed the deadline, likely to Monday.

Hadar Muchtar commented on Thursday on her candidacy in the upcoming Likud primaries. In an interview with Channel 14, she expressed confidence that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will approve the shortening of her qualifying period, stating that she relies on his support to help bring young people into the party.

Politician Hadar Muchtar, currently running for the Likud party, has secured support from 120 senior members to shorten her mandatory membership period. She also sought a blessing from Rabbi Yoshiyahu Pinto ahead of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's decision.

120 mayors, branch heads, and Likud central committee members asked Benjamin Netanyahu and Israel Katz to shorten the mandatory membership period for Hadar Muchtar. In the letter, they claimed she submitted over 1,000 membership forms and strengthened the party's hold among youth. Opposition to her candidacy remains within the Likud.

Tensions behind the scenes of the parties are at their peak, and various factions are working tirelessly on the lists that will determine their composition in the next Knesset. The Likud party is in the final stages of assembling its list ahead of the upcoming primaries.
