Herzog on tour of Tel Aviv market
Zionist Union leader Isaac Herzog is doing the rounds at Shuk Hacarmel in Tel Aviv. Unlike Netanyahu’s tour of the Jerusalem market on Sunday, which was closed to the media, Zionist Union heads invited the media to cover their jaunt

One of the merchants tells Herzog that “for 30 years I voted Likud, but this time, I and everyone I sell to say we will vote for you.” According to Ynet, Herzog replies: “We must work hard… we must convince as many people as necessary to bring change.”
Herzog calls the market in Tel Aviv an “amazing symbol of the Israeli [social] mosaic. We have people from all walks of life, and they all want change.”
