Recent polling and statements from Israeli political leaders indicate limited prospects for a Likud-Religious Zionist Party (RZP) joint electoral list ahead of the October 27, 2026, Knesset vote. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has publicly urged unity between RZP leader Bezalel Smotrich and Otzma Yehudit head Itamar Ben-Gvir to consolidate right-wing votes and avoid losses below the 3.25% threshold, while tensions have risen between Ben-Gvir and Likud over alliance proposals. Smotrich has explored other partnerships, including with former Likud figures, but no negotiations or agreements point to integration with Likud’s slate. Late-August surveys show RZP polling near or below the threshold independently, reinforcing the prevailing trader view that separate lists remain the baseline.
