Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud party would win 36 seats in the Knesset if elections were held today, six more than the ruling party currently holds, according to a poll published by Keshet TV.
Following Likud in the poll is the Yesh Atid party, which would win 18 seats, up from its current 11. The opposition Zionist Union, the Joint (Arab) List and the Jewish Home party would each receive 11 seats.
At the bottom of the list is the ultra-Orthodox Shas party, with only four seats, down from its current 7.
The poll also finds that 16% think former Likud Minister Gideon Sa’ar was best suited to replace Netanyahu as head of the party. However, 33% said they did not know who should replace Netanyahu.
The poll, conducted by Panels Politics and Panel4All, surveyed 538 Israeli adults.
