Interior Minister Ayelet Shaked will announce at a press conference tonight Jewish Home will not drop out before next week’s election despite poor poll numbers, according to advisers close to her and the alliance’s No. 2 Yossi Brodny.

The Shaked-led electoral list has consistently failed to poll above the minimum vote threshold needed to enter the Knesset, and a report earlier today asserted she was facing internal pressure to drop out.

Jewish Home later denied Shaked was asked to quit.
