i24 poll shows dramatic shift: Bennett collapses to 12 seats, Likud rises to 30

Primary source Internal intake · 1 reviewed intake signal · Desk window 21:29

TL;DR

A new i24 survey, reported by the Zioneer-leveraged desk track, shows Naftali Bennett plummeting to 12 seats, Gadi Eisenkot at 17, and the Democrats at 11. Likud rises to 30, while Otzma Yehudit holds 9, Deri and Shas 9, and Liberman 8 — signaling a dramatic rightward shift.

01 · THE DISPATCH

This single-source survey, carried out by i24 and reported via the desk's curated feed, marks a sharp reversal from trends observed in a Channel 14 poll released just minutes earlier. The earlier poll (published at 21:14 Jerusalem time) showed Bennett tied with Eisenkot at 20, protracted attrition for Netanyahu, and the opposition bloc collectively weaker. The i24 numbers, while from a different house and methodology, suggest a deeper erosion of Bennett's position — a drop from 20 to 12 seats — and a corresponding rise for Likud (from an estimated mid-20s to 30). No margin of error or sample details were provided with this snapshot. If confirmed, the swing would consolidate the right wing and leave the Bennett-Eisenkot axis far from a blocking majority. The poll was posted at 21:28 Jerusalem time and should be treated as a single-source developing indicator pending further data or multi-source corroboration.
