Not just Channel 14: Likud now largest party in Maariv poll

The change comes primarily due to the collapse of Benny Gantz's State Camp party from the high 30s at the beginning of the war to just 20 seats, now.

A new poll conducted for Maariv by Menachem Lazar and released today (Friday) shows Likud with the largest number of seats at 22, with Benny Gantz's State Camp party at 20.

This is the first time a poll other than Channel 14's Direct Polls shows Likud at the top, and Likud's success is primarily thanks to Benny Gantz's party's collapse from the high 30s in the early days of the war to just 20 now.

Avigdor Liberman is also cementing his party's hold as the second largest opposition party, defeating Yair Lapid's Yesh Atid 15-13.

If the election were held today, Likud would get 22 seats, State Camp 20, Israel Beytenu 15, Yesh Atid 13, Shas 10, Otzmah Yehudit 10, Democrats 9, UTJ 7, Hadash-Ta'al 5, Ra'am 5, Religious Zionism 4.

Balad and New Right would not pass the electoral threshold.

Netanyahu's camp would get 53 seats, Gantz's camp 62, and Hadash-Ta'al 5.
