Latest Polling Shows No Signs Of Stability If Snap Election Forced

ISRAEL

Latest opinion polling from outlet Midgam offers little prospect of a stable majority gov't being formed in Israel in the event its results were replicated in a snap general election. This follows the loss of the governing majority in the Knesset for PM Naftali Bennett's gov't after an MK from Bennett's own Yamina party left the goalition

  • Based on this poll, the pro- and anti-Benjamin Netanyahu factions would be split 60-60 in the Knesset according to the seat projection, and even if the result were to shift one or two seats either side of this threshold, with such a narrow majority there is no assurance the gov't would be a stable one.
  • Midgam seat projection: Likud (Pro-Netanyahu): 36 (+1), Yesh Atid (anti-Netanyahu): 20 (+3), B&W (Anti): 10, Religious Zionism (Pro): 9, (+1), Shas (Pro): 8 (-1), United Torah Judaism (Pro): 7, Labor (anti): 6 (-1), Yamina (anti): 5, Yisrael Beiteinu (anti): 5, Joint List (anti, non-gov't): 5 (-1), Ra'am (anti): 5, Meretz (anti): 4 (-1). +/- vs.6 June 2022.
