Yashar Leads Likud 22-21 as Netanyahu Edges Eisenkot on Suitability

A new Kantar election poll gives Gadi Eisenkot's Yashar 22 Knesset seats and Likud 21, while both parties lose ground from the previous survey. It places Otzma Yehudit at 10, Beyachad at 15, the Democrats and Yisrael Beytenu at nine each, and the new Hili Tropper-Yoaz Hendel slate above the threshold with four. Netanyahu narrowly leads Eisenkot 36% to 35% on suitability for prime minister. The survey says 64% rate the government's war management poorly, while 80% of opposition voters rate the outgoing opposition's performance poorly.
