A Kantar election poll gives Gadi Eisenkot’s Yashar 24 Knesset seats and Likud 22. A Bennett-Lapid list receives 14, the Democrats 10, Otzma Yehudit and Yisrael Beiteinu nine each, while Shas gets seven and Religious Zionism five. The poll places parties aligned with Benjamin Netanyahu on 51 seats, Eisenkot’s bloc on 57 and Arab parties on 12, leaving no camp at 61. Eisenkot leads Netanyahu 41% to 35% in prime-minister suitability, while Naftali Bennett edges Netanyahu 37% to 36%, his first lead in that matchup.
