Political analyst and pollster Shlomo Filber stated his election predictions remain unchanged, forecasting a clear victory for the right-wing bloc. In an interview with "Ptitchei V'Zimri Ba'am" on Radio Galey Yisrael, Filber reiterated his assessment that the right will secure 63 to 64 Knesset seats. However, he cautioned that several factors could influence the final distribution of mandates, urging careful analysis of the data. Filber highlighted the uncertainty surrounding Arab voter turnout and the final percentage of votes from the Haredi (ultra-Orthodox) community as key variables. He also pointed to the significant impact of parties hovering around the electoral threshold, noting that two such parties are currently "burning" six to seven mandates between them. Filber emphasized that these parties are disproportionately affecting the right-wing bloc more than the left-wing bloc.
