New Poll Shows Netanyahu Bloc Gaining Seats, Eisenkot Bloc Shrinking
Summarized from Haaretz English by baba
A new Israeli election poll shows former IDF chief Gadi Eisenkot's bloc losing two seats to 50, while Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition gained two seats to 53. The shifts are partly due to Ofer Winter's Amcha Yisrael party crossing the electoral threshold. Eisenkot still leads Netanyahu in a head-to-head suitability for prime minister question. The poll surveyed 552 respondents with a 4.2 percentage point margin of error.
