A new Channel 12/N12 survey by Amit Segal finds the governing coalition gaining one seat compared to the previous poll, while opposition MK Gadi Eisenkot further extends his lead over rival Naftali Bennett, according to the results broadcast Thursday evening.
A new political poll broadcast Thursday evening on Channel 12 by Amit Segal shows the governing coalition gaining one mandate compared to the previous survey, while the gap between opposition leaders Gadi Eisenkot and Naftali Bennett continues to widen in Eisenkot's favor.
The results extend a trend tracked across multiple Israeli media polls in recent weeks: Eisenkot, the former IDF chief of staff who entered politics this year, has steadily overtaken Bennett, the former prime minister, and now leads him by a growing margin. The coalition's gain marks a slight reversal from the narrowing lead Eisenkot had been building among opposition parties.
Full seat breakdown and bloc totals were not included in the initial broadcast report. The survey was conducted by the Channel 12 pollster and follows a series of rapid shifts in Israeli public opinion, as documented by The Zioneer in prior polls this month showing Eisenkot rising from a tie with Bennett at 20 seats to overtaking him decisively.
