Senior member Baruch Marzel of the Otzma Yehudit (Jewish Power) Party has told Arutz Sheva that the right could lose power in the next elections because smaller constituents Yisrael Beytenu and Shas may not get enough votes to pass the threshold for staying in the Knesset and the Yahad party of former Shas member Eli Yishai might not get in, resulting in a ten-Knesset seat loss.
Marzel said Otzma Yehudit will run despite the increased threshold. Saying things could not be worse than the current government because of its construction freeze in Judea and Samaria, he criticized the police department's investigations involving Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu for cooperating with the left and the media.
