Pollster Shlomo Filber stated on Tuesday that the upcoming election results would be significantly different from the last poll presented, anticipating unprecedented numbers. Speaking ahead of the 10 PM exit poll release, Filber described the election as a "battle for every vote," extending to Arab and Haredi communities and both political blocs. He suggested that his findings were causing considerable difficulty for those attempting to build predictive models. Filber's comments appear to be preparing the right-wing for a potential loss, despite his earlier optimistic forecasts throughout the election period.
