A new Ma'ariv poll published Friday indicates that the opposition bloc could form a government with 61 Knesset seats from Zionist parties, excluding ultra-Orthodox and Arab factions.
A Ma'ariv poll published Friday afternoon projects that the opposition bloc can assemble a 61-seat coalition composed solely of Zionist parties, without relying on ultra-Orthodox or Arab factions. The survey, conducted by the Israeli daily, reflects the current political landscape as coalition negotiations continue. Earlier this month, a Ma'ariv poll on July 17 projected a similar opposition coalition with 62 seats, while a separate poll by Amit Segal (N12) on July 20 found that opposition voters prefer coalition support from an Arab party if the anti-Netanyahu bloc falls short of 61 seats. The new poll suggests the opposition may have a viable path to government without Haredi or Arab partners, though the exact composition remains subject to ongoing political dynamics.
