A new poll released by KAN 11 shows the Likud party gaining two seats, bringing their total to 27 mandates. This gain comes at the expense of Naftali Bennett's Yamina party, which drops to 13 mandates, and Otzma Yehudit, which falls to six mandates. The updated poll, published Wednesday night by KAN 11 pollster Dudi Hassid, maintains a complete tie between the political blocs.
According to the updated survey, Gadi Eisenkot's Yesh Atid party is projected to win 21 mandates. The Joint List is expected to receive 11 mandates, the Democrats 9, and Yisrael Beiteinu 8. Ra'am is projected to secure 7 mandates.
Among coalition parties, Otzma Yehudit, Religious Zionism, United Torah Judaism, and Shas are each projected to receive six mandates. The Likud's increase of two mandates is attributed to losses from Yamina and Otzma Yehudit.
The bloc division shows the right-wing bloc with 51 mandates and the change bloc also with 51 mandates. The Arab parties, the Joint List and Ra'am, together receive 18 mandates, meaning neither bloc is close to the 61-mandate majority needed to form a government.
