A new poll conducted by pollster Mano Geva for Channel 12 and released tonight (Tuesday) shows Likud reaching a post-war peak (in this poll) of 19 seats and Benny Gantz's State Camp party declining slightly to 35.

Meanwhile, Yair Lapid's Yesh Atid gets 14 seats, Shas 11, Avigdor Liberman's Yisrael Beiteinu 10, Itamar Ben Gvir's Otzmah Yehudit 9, UTJ 7, Arab parties Hadash-Ta'al and the Joint List each get 5, as does Meretz.

Balad and Smotrich's Religious Zionism fail to pass the electoral threshold.

The current coalition would get 46 seats and the opposition would get 74.

Answering the question of when elections should be held, 50% of anti-Netanyahu voters believe they should be held now, 42% believe they should be held as soon as the war is over, and just 6% believe they should be held at the scheduled date in 2026.

Among Netanyahu voters, just 7% want elections now, 33% want elections after the war, and 55% want the elections held on time in 2016.

On the question of who they would like to see win the Presidential election, 72% of Netanyahu voters and 23% of anti-Netanyahu voters prefer Donald Trump, while 8% of Netanyahu voters and 55% of anti-Netanyahu voters prefer Joe Biden. Overall, 44% of voters want Trump and just 30% want Biden, with the rest not sure.

This poll was conducted before Gideon Saar's split from Gantz's State Camp party and formation of his own separate party.
