Pollster Tzuriel Sharon of Direct Polls, whose pre-election survey came closest to the actual results, addressed the question Monday morning on Galei Israel radio: will Eisenkot form a government with backing from the Arab parties or from the chareidi parties?
"A minority government, Arabs, chareidim, this is an event that in my view would be the most destructive thing for the change bloc, or at least for significant parts of it," Sharon said.
"Now the question is whether you're busy trying to make the other side do so much damage to itself, and to see here some government that now again you'll sit and attack for two years until it falls, or whether you look for a second at something that it's forbidden to talk about this way, but what the public wants."
He concluded: "I estimate that in the end a unity government will form, but the path to it will be very difficult."
