Likud Primaries See 53.5% Voter Turnout with Ohana Leading Polls
The Likud party held its primaries on Monday, with polling stations closing after approximately 11 hours of voting. The final turnout reached about 53.5%, marking a roughly 10% increase compared to the same point in the previous primaries. Official results are expected to be announced on Tuesday morning.
A sample survey conducted by the DRI Institute among 700 actual voters showed Amir Ohana leading the race, followed by Yariv Levin in second place and Eli Cohen in third. Almog Cohen and Moshe Saada ranked fourth and fifth, respectively. The top ten also include Miri Regev (sixth), Boaz Bismuth (seventh), Tali Gottlieb (eighth), Amichai Shikli (ninth), and Ofir Katz (tenth).
Other notable placements include Nir Barkat at 16th, May Golan at 18th, Dudi Amsalem at 21st, David Bitan at 23rd, and Avi Dichter at 24th. Regarding the participation of Haredi voters, Yossi Rozenboim, a Haredi Likud member, stated that they succeeded in surpassing 4,000 Haredi voters in the party primaries.
The primaries are a key step in determining the Likud party's candidate list ahead of upcoming elections, reflecting internal party dynamics and voter engagement.
