Likud meets to give Kulanu 2nd, 12th, 20th and final spots in joint list
The Likud secretariat will meet at 4 p.m. to approve Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s request to fold Moshe Kahlon’s Kulanu into the Likud slate ahead of possible elections later this summer.
The vote is expected to pass despite opposition from ministers and others in the party concerned that they would be pushed down the list to slots with an unlikely chance of making it into the next Knesset.
Kulanu will be given the 2nd, 12th and 20th and final spots on the joint list. Meaning, if Likud receives 35 seats, a Kulanu MK will receive the 35th seat, according to the Haaretz daily.
