As the Central Elections Committee continues to tally votes, with 77% of ballots counted, several Knesset members find their seats uncertain. Final results are expected by Friday morning. The Likud party is projected to win 27 seats. Among those whose entry into the next Knesset is in doubt are Shlomo Lerner and Itzik Bonzel, both of whom were placed in lower positions on the list (28th and 29th) despite receiving Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's support.
In the "Yisrael Beiteinu" party, projected to receive 22 seats, Brigadier General (res.) Nir Hajbi, who lost his son in the October 7th Hamas attack and subsequently commanded a reserve battalion, is expected to enter the Knesset. However, attorney Ron Barkai, at number 23 on the list, faces an uncertain future.
Naftali Bennett's "Achva Ba'ad" party is polling at 11 seats. MK Ram Ben Barak, former Deputy Director of the Mossad, is currently positioned at number 12 and appears unlikely to secure a Knesset seat based on current results.
The Joint List is also projected to win 11 seats. Ayass Natur, at number 12, is currently not expected to enter the Knesset, though the situation remains fluid.
For the Democratic Party, with 8 projected seats, protest activist Moshe Redman Abutbul is unlikely to be elected, while former MK Michal Rozin, at number 8, is also in a precarious position. Yisrael Beiteinu is expected to secure 7 seats, with MK Hamed Amar (Druze) at number 7 likely to enter, while former journalist Yevgeny Suba at number 8 is not. United Torah Judaism is projected to win 7 seats, with Yehuda Weisspish at number 7 expected to enter, but Yaakov Tessler at number 8 is not. Shas is also polling at 7 seats, with MK Moshe Abutbul at number 7 expected to enter, but former Health Minister MK Uriel Busso at number 8 is not. Otzma Yehudit is projected to win 7 seats, with attorney Hanamel Dorfman at number 7 expected to enter, while party activist Tzachi Eliyahu at number 8 is not.
National Religious and Identity parties are projected to receive 6 seats. MK Zvi Sukkot, at number 7, is likely to be left out, while Deputy Colonel (res.) Itamar Itam, son of former minister Effie Itam, at number 6, is expected to enter. Ra'am is projected to win 6 seats, with Dr. Yasser Hajiriat at number 6 expected to enter, while Ibrahim Al-Touri at number 7 faces an uncertain outcome. The parties of Winter and Zelicha did not pass the electoral threshold.
