According to channel 12 news outlets, Trump - A Trusted Ally of Israel: Election Campaign Reaches Israel. "Our objective is to engage the 500,000 eligible Israeli voters, with around 85% of them aligning with the Republican Party," stated campaign organizers. The goal is to significantly increase voter turnout rates in Israel.

Simultaneously, the Republican Party in the USA has initiated its election efforts in Israel, actively seeking to persuade many Americans residing there to support Trump. The campaign's slogan in Israel emphasizes Trump's role as a steadfast supporter of Israel. Nearly half a million American citizens residing in Israel hold voting rights, with a substantial majority leaning towards the Republicans.

The Israeli branch of the Republican Party anticipates a robust voter mobilization effort, believing it could wield significant influence over the US elections, particularly in swing states. Attorney Mark Tzel leads the Israeli campaign team as Chairman of the Republican Party in Israel, supported by campaign director Ariel Sander, strategic consultant Dana Mizrahi, media consultant Or Amior, Roni Erzi, CEO of Mashrokit Digital, and Hirah Toker, consultant for ultra-Orthodox affairs, mako news reports.

In the 2020 presidential elections, voter turnout among American citizens in Israel reached 25%. This time, the Republican Party aims to achieve a 60% turnout. In two weeks, Israeli party leaders will participate in the Republican Party convention in the USA to endorse Trump's candidacy and select the vice-presidential nominee. The party headquarters also notes that voter registration is already underway across all US states, urging potential voters to register promptly to exercise their voting rights on election day.
