And third place: maybe Yaakov Guterman again

The exchange of names for the question of who will be the man to fill the third place in the list of 'Degel HaTorah in the Knesset continues to swing. Leading candidates to date were Rabbi Eliezer Sorotzkin from Lev Le'achim and Yitzchak Reich, CEO of Agudath Israel nursery school and the former mayor of Rechasim.
However, over the last few days, a name which was rejected in the past, came up again: Yaakov Guterman, the mayor of Modi'in Illit. It is no secret that in R' Aharon Leib Steinman's home not everyone is his fan, but ultimately they also know that R' Aharon Leib is going to decide, and that considerations which will stand before him will be broader be broader than narrow considerations.
Regarding the option of Gutterman, says a senior in Degel HaTorah: "Even those who claim that Gutterman is too independent in the management of his city Modiin Illit, when you served as a Knesset member, there is no such thing as independence. The head of list Moshe Gafni will always come to consult with R' Aharon Leib before making decisions, and the numbers 2 and 3 on the list will have to fall in line. "
The reason why Guterman is still considered a likely candidate that this time this is a very serious campaign – recruit of Yeshiva students, painful cuts - and one must choose a representative who knows the work, the scene and the people. Gutterman previously worked alongside MK Avraham Ravitz z"l in the Finance Committee, managed a city, led employment projects, and lectured to various entities. "Yes he can succeed in this role," says the senior at Degel HaTorah.
