Will they run separately? Smutrich with four seats – on the limit of the blocking percentage

A survey by the Smith Institute for the Jerusalem Post examined what the map of seats would look like in the event of a split in the “right” and a separate run by Bezalel Smutrich at the head of the “Religious Zionism” party.

The Likud is the largest party with 29 seats, there is a future of Yair Lapid with 19 seats, a right-wing party led by Naftali Bennett with 11 seats, the National Union list led by Smutrich with four seats – on the limit of the blocking percentage.

Aryeh Deri’s Shas with eight seats. Torah Judaism gets seven seats, Yisrael Beiteinu led by Lieberman with five seats, Meretz list wins five seats, Ron Huldai’s ‘Israelis’ with four seats and it also swings on the blocking percentage. The joint list Wins 11 seats.

The survey examined another scenario, in which Bennett and Smutrich’s right-wing list faces Gideon Saar’s “New Hope” in one list, and the lists of Yair Lapid and Ron Huldai also join forces.

In this case, the Likud with 31 seats, Yesh Atid and Huldai with 22, Saar and Bennett with 29, Shas wins eight seats, Torah Judaism with eight as well, Yisrael Beiteinu gets six seats, Meretz with five and the joint list with 11 seats.
