The kingmakers in Israel's 2026 election

The kingmakers are lists that have not committed to either of the two big blocs, so they may decide which one reaches 61. In 2026: Ofer Winter's Amcha Yisrael, and Yoaz Hendel and Yaron Zelekha's Reservists and Economic list.

The bloc's lists

In Votes26's grouping, 2 lists belong to the kingmakers in 2026. The grouping is for display only: the projection counts every list on its own.

The bloc's seats since 2019

The seats won by the lists Votes26 places in the bloc, election by election: 2019 (Sept.): 8 · 2020: 0 · 2021: 7 · 2022: 0. 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.
