Naftali Bennett adds four female candidates to B’Yachad slate, bringing total women on list to 17
Those added to the list included Esti Ayalon Kubo, the former head of Israel's economic delegation to China
Assessment
Bennett is signaling an effort to broaden his electoral appeal by increasing female representation on his party list. The addition of a former economic delegation head suggests an emphasis on international trade experience. How voters respond to this diversity push will be a key factor in the coming campaign.
