Recent polls highlight risks for the Religious Zionist Party (RZP) falling below the 3.25% electoral threshold when running separately, while Otzma Yehudit secures multiple seats, amid competition from Ofer Winter’s new Amcha Yisrael party. Netanyahu has publicly urged leaders Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich to form a joint list ahead of the October 27, 2026, vote to consolidate right-wing and religious Zionist support and prevent wasted votes. Ben-Gvir has signaled resistance, prioritizing a larger independent Otzma Yehudit slate, even as RZP finalized its own candidate list in July with the submission deadline approaching in early September. These competing pressures—electoral math favoring merger versus party autonomy—sustain the balanced trader assessment of whether the factions will align on one ballot. Further negotiations or shifts in polling could alter the outlook before final lists are set.
