A new poll released by Kan News shows a significant shift in the Israeli political landscape, with the "Amcha Yisrael" party, led by Ofer Vinter, failing to cross the electoral threshold for the first time in weeks. Concurrently, the Joint List has strengthened, reaching 8 seats following the withdrawal of Balad chairman Sami Abu Shehadeh from the Knesset race.
The "Yesh!" party, headed by Gadi Eisenkot, remains the largest party in the survey with 23 seats. The Likud party, led by Benjamin Netanyahu, shows stability with 21 seats. Naftali Bennett's "Yachad" party gains ground, reaching 12 seats, followed closely by Yisrael Beiteinu with 9 seats.
Both the Democrats, led by Yair Golan, and the Joint List are polling at 8 seats. In the right-wing bloc, Otzma Yehudit, Yahadut HaTorah, and Shas each receive 8 seats. The Religious Zionism and Identity parties, running together under Bezalel Smotrich, secure 6 seats. The Reservists-Economic party, led by Yoaz Hendel and Yaron Zelekha, successfully crosses the threshold with 4 seats.
Ra'am maintains its strength with a stable 5 seats, continuing to be a necessary condition for forming a 61-seat coalition within the "change bloc."
