But most reports suggest it's going the opposite way in Israel. The far right is gaining more votes and thus, more prominence and influence, every single year. Even if it is the minority in Israel, it's a growing one, not a shrinking one.
This isn't correct. The right is actually losing votes to centrist parties:

This is actually what's caused the deadlock in Isreali politics. Netanyahu has lost ground to the Yesh Atid centrist party, which prevents him from forming a clear majority. Labour also gained 5 seats.
