Small Parties Could Decide Israeli Election Outcome, Pollster Says
Summarized from The Jerusalem Post by baba
Small parties like Winter's and Hendel-Zelekha could determine the outcome of Israel's upcoming elections, potentially preventing either bloc from forming a government, according to pollster Menachem Lazar. He stated that 5-6% of voters remain undecided, but are mostly choosing within their existing blocs. Lazar also noted that public opinion on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is fixed, and that the opposition lacks a clear leader compared to the coalition. The situation could lead to political deadlock and necessitate new elections.
