Right, led by Naftali Bennett, stable with 11 seats, Yisrael Beiteinu Avigdor Lieberman is strengthened to 9 seats, while the ultra-Orthodox parties, Shas (8) and Torah Judaism (7), remain stable.
Mansour Abbas’ RAAM party manages to pass the blocking percentage for the first time and stands at 4 seats, which of course come at the expense of the joint list, which stands at only 7 seats.
Two other parties that pass the blocking percentage are the religious Zionism of Bezalel Smutrich and the blue and white of Bnei Gantz with 4 seats each. The Labor Party continues the recovery with 7 seats. Meretz (2.9%) and Yaron Zelicha’s economic (1.19%) do not pass the blocking percentage of 3.25%.
