01 · THE DISPATCH

A new poll reported by Amit Segal (N12) on his the source points to a further acceleration of the political realignment that has been reshaping the opposition. The data, presented as the latest snapshot in a series of rapid shifts, shows that Gadi Eisenkot has gained one seat relative to his previous standing, while Naftali Bennett has lost two — all within the span of five days. Segal posted the survey with the label 'rapid-paced changes,' indicating that the trend of voter migration from Bennett to Eisenkot, which The Zioneer has tracked across multiple polls in recent days, is not slowing.

The new results align with a pattern observed in several surveys over the past week: an i24 poll from June 11 showed Bennett collapsing to 12 seats while Eisenkot climbed to 17; an N12 poll from the same evening had them tied at 20; and Polimarket prediction odds from June 15 showed Eisenkot nearing 40% against Bennett's 21%. The consecutive nature of these polls — all published within a five-day window — suggests a rapid and consistent voter shift that is moving faster than the campaign's previous trajectory.

Segal's poll is sourced from a single journalist's report and the full crosstabs and sample size have not been published. The trend across multiple independent pollsters, however, provides converging evidence of a significant realignment. Reports will continue to track any further polls and official responses from the candidates' camps as the campaign develops.
