Therefore, the order in the list is important. If a party wins 10 seats, the first 10 people on the list will enter the Knesset. After the lists are finalized, the parties will not be able to change the order or merge into a single list.

In the upcoming elections, two new lists will also compete. Naftali Bennett leads 'Together', and Gadi Eizenkot leads 'Straight'. The two considered running together, but Bennett has already submitted a separate list. Therefore, they will compete on two separate lists.
