**Recent Israeli election dynamics strongly favor Otzma Yehudit and Noam running on separate lists.** With snap elections set for October 27, 2026, far-right parties face intense pressure to consolidate amid polls showing new entrant Amcha Yisrael (Ofer Winter) drawing votes from the Religious Zionist Party (RZP) and pushing it near or below the 3.25% threshold. Prime Minister Netanyahu has publicly urged Itamar Ben-Gvir (Otzma Yehudit) and Bezalel Smotrich (RZP) to merge their slates to maximize right-wing seats, but Ben-Gvir has rejected this, calling instead for a large independent Otzma Yehudit while suggesting Smotrich align elsewhere. Noam, the small anti-LGBT religious party previously included in the 2021–2022 Religious Zionist technical bloc with both Otzma Yehudit and RZP, receives no recent mention in merger discussions. Its rebranding efforts have not produced announced joint-list agreements, and polls place it well below the threshold on its own. Ben-Gvir’s emphasis on preserving Otzma Yehudit’s distinct brand and seat count, combined with the absence of any confirmed Noam-Otzma talks, underpins traders’ strong consensus that the two will not share a list. Late developments such as Winter’s entry and right-wing fragmentation continue to shape this positioning.
