Two days after he announced his party's departure from the government, a new Direct Plus poll for Channel 14 released today (Monday) suggests this step may have backfired with the public.

Among Gantz's own prospective voters, 42% intend to keep voting for him, 35% never voted for him in the first place, and 8% are undecided. Fully 16% said that they would reconsider voting for him after he broke up the unity government.

Meanwhile, 61% think Gantz's departure was motivated by politics, as opposed to 38% who think it was based on security and non-partisan considerations.
