In episode 5 of Haaretz’s Election Overdose podcast, Anshel Pfeffer and Dahlia Scheindlin, together with this week’s guest Pnina Pfeuffer, discuss the Haredi vote and whether the Coronavirus clashes have a wider effect on this election.

Also, can newly elected Labor leader Merav Michaeli make something better out of the worst job in Israeli politics? How badly disjointed is the Joint List? We also indulge in some last-minute predictions on splits and mergers before the candidates in the election submit their final slate - with the deadline coming up next week.

As Israel embarks on its fourth election in two years, Anshel and Dahlia, along with guests, will guide you every week through Israel’s electoral thickets, the issues, the personalities, the polls and a history of elections in campaign jingles.
