  • Confirmed Election held March 2, 2020

    As the Joint List's core, Hadash-Ta'al reaches a record 15 seats in 2020

    For the September 2019 and March 2020 elections Hadash-Ta'al rejoined the other Arab parties in the revived Joint List, which won 13 and then a record 15 seats on 2 March 2020 — the high-water mark of Arab political representation in the Knesset, with Ayman Odeh leading the third-largest bloc.

  • Confirmed Party formed February 21, 2019

    Hadash and Ta'al form a joint list after the Joint List splinters

    On 21 February 2019, after the Joint List broke apart, the Arab-Jewish communist party Hadash (Ayman Odeh) and Ahmad Tibi's Ta'al formed the Hadash-Ta'al list, with Odeh at the top and Tibi second. It won six seats in the April 2019 election, sustaining Arab representation amid the fracturing of the unified slate.
