New Poll Shows Opposition Party Leading, Netanyahu's Bloc Gaining
A new poll released by Channel 12 News in Israel indicates a significant shift in the political landscape, with the 'Yashr!' party, led by Gadi Eisenkot, emerging as the frontrunner with 25 seats. The ruling Likud party, headed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, follows closely in second place with 21 seats. The 'Bihad' party secured 13 seats, and 'HaDemocratim' garnered 11 seats.
Other parties also showed notable results: 'Yisrael Beiteinu' and 'Yahadut HaTorah' each received 8 seats, while 'Shas' and 'HaReshima HaMishelet' obtained 7 seats apiece. In the religious-nationalist sector, 'HaTzionut HaDatit' and 'Otzma Yehudit' each secured 6 seats. Ra'am received 4 seats.
A significant development highlighted by the poll is the performance of 'Amkha Yisrael,' led by Ofer Winter, which successfully passed the electoral threshold to win 4 seats. This move has narrowed the gap between the opposing political blocs from nine seats to five.
The poll also revealed challenges for several other political factions, including the 'Yuazliha' technical bloc (comprising Yuaz Hendel and Yaron Zelekha), Benny Gantz's 'Blue and White' party, 'Yisrael Tfila,' and 'Noam,' none of which managed to surpass the electoral threshold.
