On the background of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's calls for legal reform, a new poll indicates a significant strengthening of the right-wing bloc while Yair Lapid continues to lose support, receiving only 15 mandates.
According to the poll conducted by "Direct Polls" for Channel 14, if elections were held today, the distribution of mandates would look like this:
Likud: 30 mandates
National Unity (Center-Left): 28 mandates
Yesh Atid: 15 mandates
Shas: 10 mandates
Yamina: 7 mandates
United Torah Judaism: 7 mandates
Religious Zionism: 6 mandates
Jewish Power (Otzma Yehudit): 5 mandates
Ra'am (United Arab List): 4 mandates
Joint List (Hadash-Ta'al): 4 mandates
Meretz: 4 mandates
Regarding blocs:
Coalition (Right-Wing) Bloc: 58 mandates
Opposition (Center-Left) Bloc: 58 mandates
Joint List (Arab Parties): 4 mandates
In terms of suitability for the role of Prime Minister:
Netanyahu vs. Gantz: 44% support for each.
Netanyahu vs. Lapid: Netanyahu receives 45%, while Lapid gets 32% support.
These results suggest a closely divided political landscape with a strong showing for the right-wing bloc and a decline in support for Yair Lapid's party.
