In the primary vote for spots on the Likud's electoral list for the Knesset elections, incumbent MKs Moshe Feiglin and Tzipi Hotovely, both on the right-wing of the party, failed to win spots high enough on the list to realistically have a chance of being elected to the Knesset, while Internal Affairs minister Gilad Erdan won the second spot on the list, behind Nethanyahu, and Miri Regev rose to the 4th slot, up from 12th. Feiglin, who had held the 13th spot in the outgoing Knesset, fell to the unrealistic 36th position,[20] and Hotovely fell from the 18th position[21] to the 26th slot.[20] Likud had 18 seats in the 19th Knesset, and internally expected to win a maximum of 24 seats in the next election.[20]
