Labor/Zionist Union (Herzog / Livni): 23

The Joint (Arab) List: 12

Bayit Yehudi (Bennett): 11

Yesh Atid (Lapid): 11

UTJ (Gafni / Litzman): 8

Kulanu (Kachlon): 7

Yisrael Beyteynu (Liberman): 6

Shas (Deri): 6

Meretz (Gal-On): 5

Yachad (Eli Yishai): 4

LEFT: Labor (23) + Arab List (12) + Yesh Atid (11) + Meretz (5) = 51

RIGHT: Likud (27) + Bayit Yehudi (11) + Kulanu (7) + UTJ (8) + Shas (6) + Yisrael Beytenu (6) + Yachad (4) = 69

 

Aryeh Deri of Shas said his party would not join a leftwing government, and preferred to join a national unity government led by the right.

Some voices in Yesh Atid are hinting they would not join a Herzog/Livni led government as it is too left, but no official position has been put forward.

Eli Yishai’s Yachad party continues to pass the electoral threshold.
