No, the prosecutor, judge, and defense attorneys do not have to agree on the jury.
READ what I wrote.
Both the prosecution and the defense have the right to strike a certain number of jurors just because. No one has to agree on anything. Then both sides can dismiss another group based on cause. Again, they don't have to agree.
Jury selection would never be completed if both the defense and the prosecution had to agree on the strikes. They aren't looking for the same thing. The plan is to keep the people that will do your side the most good and the least damage.
