Channel 12 Poll Gives Ministers Poor Marks
N12 published its Ulpan Shishi poll at 22:00 IDT and updated it at 00:05, with Times of Israel carrying the liveblog pickup at 03:14. The Mano Geva/Midgam/iPanel survey gave every tested minister a negative balance: Netanyahu 58% bad and 38% good, Katz 61-30, Ben Gvir 63-32, Smotrich 69-25 and Kisch 69-19. It found 58% credit Trump most for returning the living hostages, 58% prefer someone other than Netanyahu as next prime minister, and 66% oppose advancing the Torah Study Basic Law. The campaign signal is accountability, while the public debate should preserve reverence for Torah learning and answer security, service and trust concerns.
