In this Thursday, March 14, 2019 photo, Zehut party leader Moshe Feiglin, second left, attends an election campaign event in Sderot, Israel. The Cinderella story of Israel's current election campaign is a fringe party led by Feiglin, an ultranationalist libertarian with a criminal record, who vows to legalize marijuana in an improbable run to parliament.
