Center Party
A new centrist party, most of whose founding members left the Likud, but which was joined by several former members of the Labor Party and new figures in Israeli politics. It is headed by former defense minister Yitzhak Mordechai, who is also running for prime minister. There are currently six MKs -- former members of the Likud, Tsomet, Gesher, and the Labor Party -- who are candidates of the new party.
