Record number of parties have filed slates for upcoming Israeli election
The 27th party just registered its slate for the April election, overtaking the number of parties that ran in 2015.
Then, 26 parties registered but the Meginim al Yeladenu party pulled out of the race a day before the election, leaving 25 in the race (and sending 4 million voting slips to landfill).
