Biography

Born in Lod, Marciano was first elected to the Knesset in the 2006 elections and served as the Labor-Meimad Parliamentary Group Chairman. Placed seventeenth on the party's list, he lost his seat in the 2009 elections when it was reduced to 13 seats. However, he re-entered the Knesset on 9 December 2012 as a replacement for Amir Peretz,[1] who had left the party to join Hatnuah. He did not contend in the 2013 elections, and subsequently lost his seat.

Marciano has about 70 convictions for traffic law violations.[2] He was also involved in a violent incident in a pub, after which he complained about his own behavior in the ethics committee of the Knesset, and was found guilty.[3]
