Pollster Adi Geva noted that in the last elections, Arab voter turnout was between 53-54%, compared to 74% among Jewish voters. This disparity indicates a greater potential for growth in the Arab sector.

Mano Geva, chief pollster for Channel 12, added that the final election outcome will depend on the relationship between Jewish voting within blocs and Arab voting.
