  • Shas party is experiencing a significant decline in its political strength.
  • Support rates have dropped in cities with large Haredi populations.

  • The decline occurs after years of Shas establishing its position in the Haredi public.

An analysis of recent data indicates a significant decline in the political strength of the Shas party, a development occurring after years in which it had successfully established its position within the Haredi public as the party of "Marana ZT"L" (our late master, may his memory be blessed). The party is experiencing a drop in support rates in cities with large Haredi populations, with some areas showing a dramatic decrease compared to past achievements.

This trend suggests a weakening of Shas's influence among its traditional base. The analysis highlights a concerning pattern of reduced voter turnout and support in key Haredi centers, raising questions about the party's future electoral prospects and its ability to maintain its standing in the political landscape.
