  1. Which means if they don’t pass the threshold, the anti-religious parties will gain those seats. Parties that can’t pass the threshold help their worst enemies. Based on (the admitedly unreliable) polls, Labor and Likud will get two of those seats, and one each will go to Bayit Yehudi, Yesh Atid and the combined Arab (Islamics/Communists/Arab nationalists) list.

  2. zionflag: actually it increases the chance of Yahadut haTorah getting an 8th seat. By increasing the pool of available seats by seven (if neither passes the threshold), there is a better chance of Yahduat HaTorah (UTJ) picking up a seat, along with many others whom we all can’t stand.
