Poll standing
How is a party's poll standing determined?
This status is calculated automatically from the latest polls shown on this site — one per outlet we track. We check how many of them report the party crossing the electoral threshold (rather than assuming this from the seat count alone), and also show the range and average of its projected seats in those same polls. Polls reflect a snapshot at the time they were published and are not a forecast of the election result.

The platform in brief
Key positions as published in the party's platform
VerifiedLast updated 05.09.2026"Israel First"'s national work plan (party website)
Enlistment and equal burden-sharing
An equal, mandatory service law for all Israeli citizens — anyone not serving in the IDF would be required to do national-civilian service; state benefits would be stripped from evaders, alongside rewards for those serving and doing reserve duty.
Security, Gaza, and the war
Strategic resolution against Iran, Hezbollah, and Hamas aiming for total, lasting quiet; a formal cancellation of the Oslo Accords; and an independent international public-diplomacy/information apparatus in the Foreign Ministry, Defense Ministry, and IDF.
Cost of living and economy
Cutting government ministries from 30+ down to 15–20 and abolishing the "minister without portfolio" role, alongside a drastic cut to the corporate tax rate to draw capital and tech talent back to Israel.
Democracy and the judiciary
The party's work plan includes no treatment of democracy or the judiciary.
Religion and state
No dedicated religion-and-state policy (such as marriage, conversion, kashrut, or Shabbat transit) was found in the work plan.
Education / health and welfare
On education: a voucher reform — an annual personal education voucher worth about 60,000 NIS per parent for free school choice, with full managerial autonomy for principals. On health: no dedicated chapter was found in the work plan.
