The chairwoman of the Jewish Home party, Ayelet Shaked, said in closed-door talks that if her party reaches 2.51% in the polls, Netanyahu will have no choice and he will help her pass the threshold. This was announced today (Sunday) on the This Morning program on the B network.
Shaked was asked in the conversations how she would manage to close the gap between what her party receives in the polls and the threshold.
In response to the question, she replied: "The task is not to reach the threshold of 3.25%. Rather, it is enough for us to reach 2.5 - 2.7% and then Netanyahu will take care of passing the threshold for us.".

In doing so, she tells her people that if her party becomes stronger, then Netanyahu will have no choice and he will order Likud members to stop attacking her and will even help.
Shaked met tonight with the elder rabbi of Religious Zionism, Rabbi Chaim Druckman.
The meeting was attended by Givat Shmuel Mayor and number 2 in the party, Yossi Rudani, Knesset Member Yom Tov Kalfon, MK Orna Shtrakman, Amitai Porat and Nitzana Darshan Leitner.
Party members met with him for an hour-long conversation and wished the rabbi a happy new year. Minister Shaked and Yossi Rodney told Rabbi Druckman that the religious Zionist public has two lists and they expect support and reinforcement from him.
