The party 'Gobzema saraksts', previously known as 'Platforma 21', has submitted its candidate lists for the upcoming Saeima elections. The party has put forward a total of 73 candidates in all five electoral districts.

With the exception of the first candidate in the Riga district and former politician Aldis Gobzems, the other list leaders are largely unknown to the general public. This indicates that the party relies mainly on fresh faces rather than experienced politicians.

The party's program includes generous financial promises aimed at attracting voters. Detailed information about the content of the program has not yet been released, but the promises suggest a focus on financial benefits for voters.
