Bennett claims Likud to win 37 seats, Netanyahu ‘the next PM of Israel’
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleYamina party chief Naftali Bennett claims Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud is currently set to win some 37 seats and that the premier and his right-wing allies will secure enough seats in the elections to form a government.
“According to the statistics that we have, Likud is very strong, around 37 seats,” Bennett says in a statement. “Netanyahu is the next prime minister of Israel.”
Bennett, who is defense minister, says therefore that right-wingers should vote for Yamina, suggesting that his claim about high levels of support for Likud is aimed at driving voters who are still deciding which of the two parties to back to vote for Yamina.
