Bibi's back, baby! New poll shows Netanyahu coalition would win election

A poll conducted for Channel 14 by Direct Polls and released tonight (Tuesday) shows Binyamin Netanyahu's coalition winning an absolute majority of 62 seats for the first time since October 7, 2023.

While Channel 14 polls tend to be more favorable to Netanyahu and his coalition partners than other Israeli pollsters, they have only shown equality or a plurality for his coalition, not a majority in the Knesset - until now.

If the election were held today, Likud would receive 33 seats (one more than it has now), Gantz's State Camp 15, Israel Beytenu 15, Shas 10, Democrats 10, Yesh Atid 8, UTJ 8, Otzmah Yehudit 7, Ra'am 5, Hadash-Ta'al 5, Religious Zionism 4.

Balad and New Right would not pass the electoral threshold.

Netanyahu's coalition would get 62 seats, Gantz's coalition 53, with Hadash-Ta'al receiving 5.
