**The high implied probability against a joint Reservists–Blue and White list stems from the collapse of merger talks between Yoaz Hendel’s Reservists party and Benny Gantz’s Blue and White.** Negotiations in mid-2026 centered on forming a broader centrist or center-right bloc ahead of the October 27 election, but foundered over differences on Haredi conscription policy and willingness to partner with ultra-Orthodox parties in a future coalition. Hendel’s group prioritized a strictly “Zionist” government excluding those parties, while Gantz’s side remained more flexible. A short-lived July–early September alliance between the Reservists and former Blue and White MK Hili Tropper dissolved, with Tropper joining Gadi Eisenkot’s Yashar party and Hendel partnering instead with Yaron Zelekha’s New Economic Party. Final candidate lists submitted in early September confirmed the two factions running separately, aligning with current polling showing Blue and White near or below the threshold and the Reservists seeking viability through other pairings.
