Netanyahu and Gadi Eizenkot Tie in New Israeli Mandate Poll as Bennett Gains Support
A new mandate poll released on Sunday evening by Kan News reveals a shift in Israeli political standings. Former Chief of Staff Gadi Eizenkot and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are now tied, each receiving 23 mandates. This marks a change from previous polls where Eizenkot held a slight lead over Netanyahu by one or two mandates.
Naftali Bennett has strengthened his position, gaining an additional mandate to reach 14 mandates. The Democratic Party, Otzma Yehudit, and Yisrael Beiteinu each hold 10 mandates. United Torah Judaism has 8 mandates, Shas 7, Hadash-Ta'al 6, Ra'am 5, and Religious Zionism 4 mandates.
The opposition bloc holds 5 mandates, the right-wing bloc commands 52 mandates, and Arab parties collectively have 11 mandates. This poll provides insight into the evolving political landscape ahead of upcoming elections.
