The results of the previous poll, roughly translated into seats, would've been:
Meretz :: 29
Likud :: 22
Labor :: 20
Kachol Lavan (Blue and White) :: 18 (Yesh Atid 11, Hosen Yisrael 7)
The Joint List :: 14 (Hadash-Ta'al plus Ra'am-Balad)
New Right :: 4
Kulanu :: 4
Others :: 9 (including Bayit Yehudi and Otzma [both now in United Right-Wing Parties], Yisrael Beiteinu, Gesher, Telem [now in Kachol Lavan], Hatnua [not running], and Zehut)
United Torah Judaism, Shas, and Yachad would not have won any seats.
In this scenario a centre-left coalition of Meretz, Labor, and the constituent parties of Kachol Lavan would've won a clear majority.

Not just corruption. He will also be charged with; bribery, fraud, and breach of trust

So basically, he's probably not going to be PM by the end of this.

Raises the possibility of a national unity government led by Blue and White with a post-Netanyahu Likud, which would be interesting. Likud are saying no (and denying that they'll be 'post-Netanyahu' any time soon), and it'd be surprising if they were willing to become the smaller partner in a coalition.

A little war gaming on my part, using middle of the road estimated seats gives the following probable coalitions.
Blue and White 36, Labor 8, Meretz 5. Total seats 49, not enough to form a government.
Likud 30, UTJ 7, URP 7, New Right 6, Shas 5, Yisrael Beytenu 2, Gesher 2. Total seats 59, just shy of enough to form a government, but if it picks up 1 or 2 more seats (entirely possible according to the polls), Netanyahu remains PM.
There's a couple of parties that can tip the balance, but these are all ones who have expressed a preference, Gantz/Blue and White or Netanyahu/Likud.

I suppose the issue is that Beiteinu and Gesher will get either 4 or 0 depending on which side of the threshold they finish. If they both miss out, then it becomes easier for Blue and White to form a government, especially if they can get Kulanu on side (assuming they cross the threshold), and can get outside support from Hadash-Ta'al.
