Today is the Likud Primaries.
No matter what the results are, the press will determine that the party has gone to the right, as they do every election.
There are 38 people running for the national list and each Likud member must vote for 11.
So, I thought it would be a good idea to present the list of the 11 most right-wing candidates.
This way we can all note how some of them did not get in and that the Likud did not “elect the most right-wing candidates possible”.
The list:
102 אדלשטיין יולי יואל
103 אלקין זאב
105 ארדן גלעד
110 דנון דני
116 חוטובלי ציפי
121 לוין יריב
125 מלכה ישעיהו שי
129 פייגלין משה זלמן
133 קרא איוב
135 רצון מיכאל
138 שטרן שבח
Don’t know who made you the judge of who is more to the right, so I”ll assume you took a bribe. Remove me from your list!
Hello Jerry,
1 – This is a blog, this is not the Jerusalem Post. I believe I am entitled to my opinions and to voice them. You are free to disagree with my analysis.
2 – It is a bit insulting to accuse me of taking a bribe. I will remind you that I am not a Likud member or voter.
3 – I don’t add or subtract people from my blog. At some point you clicked on the follow button. If you are not pleased with my posts you are free to press the unfollow button.
4 – As loyal followers of this blog know, I provided a lot of background information before and after the last Likud primaries (as well as the other parties). Additionally, I wrote a piece after the last elections, explaining that the new Likud list did not move right.

The logic behind this post was to have a reference for people to refute the claims that are expected to arise that the Likud has moved right once again.

Jerry, I think that you are really rude.
Jeremy, could you please give the names in English also? Thank!
Speaker Yuli Edelstein, Minister Gilad Erdan, Deputy Minister Tzipi Hotoveli, MKs Zeev Elkin, Danny Danon, Yariv Levin and Moshe Feglin, Former MKS Ayoub Kara & Michael Ratzon, known right-wing actvists Shai Malka & Shevach Stern
thanks!
Nice. I’m sure some people will be insulted at being left off the list; I doubt too many people will be upset at being on it.
1 – Some are happy not to be on the list and some are happy to be on the list.
2 – Some are unhappy to be on the list and some are unhappy not to be on the list.
3 – Overall, most people don’t know about the list. 🙂
Is there only one women on that list?
Out of the current 18 Likud MKs – 4 are women.
Only 3 of those women are running the Likud primaries today because Limor Livnat is retiring.
Likud List:
1-Chairman
2-10 National List
11-Chairman Selection
12-15 National List (15 reserved for 1st woman if no woman is higher)
16- District
17- National List
18-19 -District selections
20- National List
21-22 – District selections
23- Chairman Selection
24- Non-Jew
25- New woman.
26 -National List.
Note:
Among the 16 Likud MKs running on national list, the 5 Likud MKs who had least votes 2 years ago: Feglin, Steinitz, Hanegbi, Akunis, Gamliel
Seems Likud did not vote for the right block.
