The Supreme Court’s early October 2026 unanimous reversal of the Central Elections Committee’s September disqualifications of Ra’am and the Joint List (Hadash-Ta’al-Balad) established the decisive barrier to exclusion. The Court applied the narrow statutory criteria under Basic Law: The Knesset section 7A, requiring clear evidence of support for armed struggle or negation of Israel as a Jewish and democratic state, standards consistently upheld in prior cycles and unmet by the petitions from Likud and Otzma Yehudit. With the October 27 Knesset election completed and the parties on the ballot, trader consensus at 99.8% reflects the finality of judicial review. Remaining uncertainty centers on any post-election procedural challenges to specific candidate certifications or reinterpretation of withdrawal conditions for figures such as Balad’s Sami Abu Shehadeh.
