This puts Kahol Lavan just one mandate behind Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Likud, which gained two seats in the poll. Avigdor Lieberman's Yisrael Beiteinu received 11, one more than it received last week. The Joint List and the United Right are also poised to win 11 seats, with the latter falling from 14 seats last week. The newly-formed Democratic Union is slated for nine, three less than in last week's poll.

United Torah Judaism received a projected seven seats, and both the Labor-Gesher joint slate and the ultra-Orthodox Shas got six seats. Moshe Feiglin's Zehut party, which barely crossed the electoral threshold in the last poll, failed to do so this time.
