- A Channel 13 poll shows the "change bloc" widening its lead days before elections.
- No bloc has a clear majority according to the latest mandate projections.
- Gadi Eisenkot's party is projected to win the most mandates.
- A government cannot be formed without Eisenkot's participation.
- Eisenkot has pledged not to sit with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
A new poll released by Channel 13 news indicates that the "change bloc" is increasing its lead just four days before the upcoming elections. However, the poll's mandate projections do not show a clear decision between the two blocs.
Gadi Eisenkot, leader of the National Unity party, is projected to lead in the number of mandates. Despite this, the poll suggests that even with Eisenkot's projected strength, a government cannot be formed without him.
Eisenkot has previously stated his commitment not to sit in a government led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
