🗞️ In-depth summary

A recent Maariv poll, conducted by Lazar Research and Panel4All on July 29-30, indicates that Likud gained two seats, reaching 22, following Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's visit to Washington. Despite this, the coalition bloc remained at 49 seats, while the change bloc received 57. The Zionist Home party, led by Chili Tropper and Yoaz Hendel, crossed the electoral threshold with four seats, potentially giving the bloc a majority. A hypothetical new center-right party, including Benny Gantz and Ayelet Shaked, would also secure four seats, but would push Zionist Home below the threshold.

  • Among opposition voters, 45% believe Gadi Eisenkot should lead the center-left bloc.
  • Eisenkot leads Netanyahu by 10 points (48% to 38%) in suitability for prime minister, the largest gap recorded.
  • Naftali Bennett leads Netanyahu by five points (44% to 39%) in the same comparison.
