Shlomo Filber Says the Right Holds 63 to 65 Seats in His Polls

Pollster and media commentator Shlomo Filber, who analyzes mandate polls for Channel 14, published a pointed post on Friday criticizing what he called selective reading and distorted interpretations of his recent data. He said the post was meant as an addendum and clarification, following “responses, trolling and unclear positions” on social media.

Filber wrote that many readers are choosing only the conclusions they want from the surveys. He said he wanted to present the most accurate picture emerging from the studies and polls he conducts, and insisted that, unlike trends seen in some other media outlets, the right-wing bloc remains strong and stable.

According to Filber, “the right-wing bloc in my polls today has 63-65 mandates.” He also addressed a common political argument that major reforms and deep changes in the country require a broader majority than the current one.

In that context, Filber outlined a possible coalition formula. He said that if a centrist-right party joins a future coalition, it could create a government with 68-70 seats.
