Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon and Transportation Minister Yisrael Katz lead their colleagues, fellow cabinet ministers, in the Knesset Channel January 2016 rating of the ministers with 5.4 points out of 10.

In second place is Justice Minister (Bayit Yehudi) Ayelet Shaked with a 5.2 score, holding her position from last month. PM Netanyahu is in third place with Yaakov Litzman (Yahadut Hatorah) with a 5.1 score.

Leading the list of Members of Knesset in Shelly Yacimovich (Machane Tzioni), maintaining her lead from last month with a 5.3 score. She is followed by Yair Lapid (Yesh Atid) with a 5.1, and third place goes to Yitzchak Herzog, head of Machane Tzioni with a 5.0.

To eliminate confusion, a poll which ranked Litzman as the number one minister was commissioned by Channel 2 News, conducted by Dr. Mina Tzemach. That poll reflects the view of voters while this poll represents the opinions of Knesset Channel political analysts.
