**Recent developments in Israeli politics indicate Likud and the Religious Zionist Party (RZP, led by Bezalel Smotrich) are preparing to contest the October 27, 2026, Knesset election on separate lists.** RZP completed its internal primaries in late July and finalized an independent slate, with Smotrich in the top spot and other MKs filling subsequent positions, ahead of the September 9 submission deadline to the Central Elections Committee. Likud held its own primary on August 17 and released a national list without reserved slots or technical merger arrangements for RZP candidates. Netanyahu has publicly urged unity among smaller right-wing factions—particularly Otzma Yehudit and RZP—to avoid wasting votes below the electoral threshold amid polls showing RZP at risk due to Ofer Winter’s new People of Israel party. However, these calls have focused on alliances outside Likud, with no confirmed joint-list agreement between Likud and RZP. Tensions, including Ben-Gvir’s rejection of an Otzma-RZP merger, further underscore ongoing fragmentation on the right rather than consolidation with the larger Likud slate. These factors—independent primaries, lack of merger announcements, and emphasis on other technical alliances—align with trader expectations reflected in the 84% probability for “No.”

This market will resolve to “Yes” if Likud and Religious Zionist Party contest the 2026 Knesset elections as a combined party list, as submitted to the Central Elections Committee. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”.
A list on which candidates from both parties appear will count regardless of the name under which that list runs, regardless of whether the arrangement is a technical bloc or a full merger of their parties, and regardless of the positions the candidates occupy on the list.
If candidates of neither party appear on any list submitted to contest the 2026 Knesset elections, this market will resolve to “No”.
Statements of intent, agreements in principle, and reported negotiations will not be considered; only the candidate lists as submitted to the Central Elections Committee will be considered. Withdrawals, disqualifications, and revisions made after the submission deadline will not be considered.
If the 2026 Knesset elections do not occur, or final candidate lists are not submitted, by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM Tel Aviv time, this market will resolve to “No”.
The resolution source for this market will be a consensus of credible reporting. In case of ambiguity, this market will resolve solely based on official information from the Central Elections Committee of Israel (https://www.bechirot.gov.il).
