Haskel Rejects Wasted-Vote Warning, Says Israel First Belongs to Neither Bloc

In an October 25 campaign post, Sharren Haskel challenged warnings that a vote for a small party would be wasted. She argued that repeatedly voting for the same politicians in order to preserve a political bloc allows them to avoid accountability to the public. Haskel said those politicians no longer work for voters when they can count on that repeated support. She presented Israel First as independent of both political blocs, saying her party was not in either bloc's pocket.
