One week from today, Israelis will head to the polls for the fifth time in under four years—a figure that is both astonishing and troublesome. Undoubtedly, the outcome of this one will have vast consequences for the region.

To understand the key developments, historical context, and what our partners at Darkenu are doing to promote democracy, we've got a special election episode of the EveryDay Voices Podcast.

Our featured guest is Michael Koplow, the chief policy officer at Israel Policy Forum. Michael dives into the party alliances, how the conflict factors in, and how to best consume election news once the votes are tallied.

You’ll also hear from Danielle Leumi, a campaigner at Darkenu, who shares how their new Democrator app is increasing voter turnout.
