Poll Shows Bennett Slumps to Single Digits as Netanyahu’s Bloc Holds Majority

A News 14 poll aired Thursday and conducted by NEXT DATA with analysis by Shlomo Filber shows continued weakening for Naftali Bennett, whose new party, Yashar, has fallen to 9 seats. The poll gives Likud 33 seats, keeping it the largest party, while Gadi Eisenkot’s Yashar remains at 20 seats.

Other results put Shas at 11 seats, Otzma Yehudit at 7, Democrats and Yisrael Beytenu at 9 each, United Torah Judaism at 8, the Joint List and Ra’am at 5 each, and Bezalel Smotrich’s Religious Zionism at 4. Benny Gantz’s Blue and White is below the electoral threshold with just 1.8% support.

The right-wing bloc keeps a clear majority with 63 seats, compared with 47 for the left-wing bloc. The Arab parties together reach 10 seats. In the preferred candidate for prime minister question, Benjamin Netanyahu leads with 48%, Eisenkot has 35%, and Bennett has dropped to 10%.

Avigdor Liberman is at 6% and Gantz at 1%, both unchanged from last week. The poll surveyed 654 adults from the general population on June 25, 2026.
