Commentator Yaakov Bardugo stated that the Likud party, led by Benjamin Netanyahu, remains Israel's largest party following the latest election exit polls. Bardugo asserted that opposition leaders lack the ability to form a government without relying on Arab parties, a prospect he deemed unstable, especially after the events of October 7.
Bardugo expressed confidence in pollster Shlomo Philber's exit poll results, predicting that the final vote count, expected within 48 hours, will align more closely with Philber's data than others. He highlighted Netanyahu's continued public trust, particularly regarding security policy, citing Israel's actions against Iran, Hamas, and Hezbollah as evidence of effective leadership.
Criticizing opposition figures Gadi Eisenkot and Yair Golan, Bardugo argued they have no reason to celebrate the poll results. He concluded by stating that President Isaac Herzog has no alternative but to task Netanyahu with forming the next government, emphasizing the public's continued support for Netanyahu's leadership.
