Mandate Survey: This is the Person Who Will Decide the Outcome of the Next Elections

While government officials threaten, often with empty threats, to topple the government if Netanyahu does not meet their demands, a mandate survey published today (Monday) in Ma'ariv shows that, in the event of elections, Israel faces another cycle of uncertainty with what now seems to be a single potential solution.

According to the current survey results, the "State Camp" has 24 mandates, Likud has 23 mandates – nearly overlapping. Yisrael Beiteinu has 14 mandates, and Otzma Yehudit has 10 mandates.

The survey results are as follows:

- The "State Camp": 24 mandates

- Likud: 23 mandates

- Yisrael Beiteinu: 14 mandates

- Yesh Atid: 12 mandates

- Otzma Yehudit: 10 mandates

- Shas: 9 mandates

- The Democrats: 8 mandates

- United Torah Judaism: 7 mandates

- Hadash-Ta'al: 5 mandates

- Ra'am: 4 mandates

- Religious Zionism: 4 mandates

Gideon Saar and Balad do not cross the electoral threshold. According to the survey, the current government does not have the ability to form a government. This raises the second question in the survey, making things more interesting, as it examines new parties that have not yet competed. For example, a new party led by Naftali Bennett is expected to receive 22 mandates and become a surprise in the elections. Essentially, Bennett's party becomes the deciding factor and could determine whether a right-wing government is formed.
