Ma'an / Arab Democratic Party[edit]

Hi, are Ma'an and the Arab Democratic Party really the same party?
I just found news that define Ma'an as a new party; the only link between the two parties that I found is the kinship bond between Abdulwahab Darawshe and Mohammed Darawshe.
The Israel Democracy Institute doesn't mention Ma'an here.

Yes. If you look at their candidate list on the CEC website, at the bottom of the list it says "The list of candidates was submitted on behalf of the Mada Party – Arab Democratic Party." That said, it looks like the party is retaining its name, but contested the election under this title. I will move the article back to the original name. Number 5 7 13:22, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. So they seem to be the same legal entity. But politically I see them as two clearly separated parties. Is the legal perspective dominant?
e.g. The Hadash list is submitted by Maki, but Hadash and Maki are separated pages. --Lorenzo0027 (talk) 18:18, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hadash is an alliance that includes Maki. I am not aware that Ma'an is anything more than Mada running under a different title. Number 5 7 18:43, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Lorenzo0027: Mada and Ma'an are the same because even Abdulwahab Darawshe are Mohammed Darawshe related. It's the same situation as with New Right ("Tzalash"), RZP ("NU-Tkuma"), Otzma ("Hayil") and Noam ("Lazuz"): a renamed party which still uses the old name as legal name Braganza (talk) 08:59, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
