The change bloc in Israel's 2026 election
The change bloc is the opposition lists that seek to replace the government. The name comes from the 'change government' formed in 2021 under Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid. In 2026 they include Beyachad, Gadi Eisenkot's Yashar!, Yisrael Beytenu, the Democrats and Blue and White.
The bloc's lists
In Votes26's grouping, 6 lists belong to the change bloc in 2026. The grouping is for display only: the projection counts every list on its own.
- Together (Naftali Bennett) (רק) — Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid
- Yashar! with Eisenkot (דרך) — Gadi Eisenkot
- Blue and White (כן)
- Yisrael Beytenu (ל) — Avigdor Liberman
- The Democrats (אמת) — Yair Golan
- Partnership for All (ד)
The bloc's seats since 2019
The seats won by the lists Votes26 places in the bloc, election by election: 2019 (Sept.): 44 · 2020: 47 · 2021: 51 · 2022: 46. The Knesset has 120 members; 61 is a majority.
What to watch tonight
A bloc is measured in seats, not percentages: a list that falls below the threshold takes its votes off the bloc, so the race at the line can decide the majority.
