The Kadima primaries went off without a hitch, and the party’s Knesset lineup is in place, with the top of the list headed by Knesset Speaker Dalia Itzik. The party’s first two slots were secured for party leader Tzipi Livni and Shaul Mofaz respectively.

The 2nd to 10th slots as follows:

Dalia Itzik, Tzachi Hanegbi, Roni Bar-On, Ze’ev Boim, Meir Sheetrit, Ruchama Avraham, Avi Dichter, Marine Solodkin, Yoel Hasson and Gideon Ezra.

Chaim Ramon was pushed back to the 15th slot (17 place in Knesset lineup), still likely to be a MK but too far back for any senior post. Jewish Agency for Israel leader Ze’ev Bielski can be pleased, landing the 13th slot, as former IDF spokeswoman Miri Regev, in the 16th slot. According to pollsters, they will all be in the next Knesset.
