In the final stretch of the election campaign, a heated debate unfolded on air between media personality and advisor Barak Sari and former footballer and media personality Eli Ohana on Radio 103FM. The two experts presented starkly different predictions regarding the Knesset majority.
Ohana expressed optimism for the right-wing bloc, confidently stating it would secure the necessary 61 or 62 seats to form a government. He asserted, "The right-wing bloc will get the majority, 61 or 62 seats."
Conversely, Sari offered a contrasting analysis, predicting a deadlock. "No one will reach 61," Sari declared, forecasting that the "change bloc" would gain around 57-58 seats, while Netanyahu's bloc would receive significantly fewer, between 50 and 51 seats. Sari also commented on the forecasts of pollster Shlomo Filber, quipping to his co-host, "Don't believe Filber, not even Bibi believes him."
