Ofer Vinter Party Surpasses Threshold in New Poll

A new poll released by Channel 13 News on Tuesday shows "Am Israel" party, led by Ofer Vinter, surpassing the electoral threshold and securing 5 Knesset seats. This projection places Vinter's party in the next Knesset. In contrast, the "Miluimnikim-HaKalkalit" party, led by Yoaz Hendel and Yaron Zelekha, dropped to 2.8% and failed to cross the threshold.

The poll indicates "Yashar" party, headed by Gadi Eisenkot, leading with 21 seats, a decrease of one seat from the previous poll. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Likud party gained one seat, rising to 19 seats. Naftali Bennett's "Achva" and Yair Golan's "HaDemokratim" each received 11 seats. Israel Beiteinu and the Joint List are projected to get 9 seats each.

Further down the list, United Torah Judaism and Otzma Yehudit are each polling at 8 seats. Shas and Religious Zionism-Identity are projected to receive 7 seats apiece, while Ra'am secures 5 seats, matching Vinter's "Am Israel" party. "HaChareidi HaTziburi" received only 1.3%, and Benny Gantz's National Unity party garnered 0.9%.

In terms of blocs, the Netanyahu bloc leads with 54 seats, while the Eisenkot bloc has 52 seats. Arab parties collectively hold 14 seats. According to this poll, neither bloc reaches the 61-seat majority required to form a government independently.
