Moshe Gafne of Degel Hatorah met on Thursday afternoon 2 Shevat in the Bnei Brak Degel office with Yaakov Litzman of the Agudas Yisrael faction. The two met to discuss election strategies for the upcoming election for the 20th Knesset.

It is pointed out that the two have been in close contact during recent months as the factions seek to devise a strategy to bring additional votes to the combined Yahadut Hatorah party. Most polls show the Ashkenazi chareidi party maintains its current seven seats but some show hope for an additional seat or even too.
