Poll gives 65 seats to right-wing, ultra-Orthodox parties

A Channel 13 poll projects that right-wing parties could muster a Knesset majority if elections are held.

It predicts: Likud 29; Yamina 22; Yesh Atid 19; Joint List 11; Blue and White 10; Yisrael Beytenu 8; Shas 7; United Torah Judaism 7; Meretz 7.

That would give right-wing and ultra-Orthodox parties 65 of the Knesset’s 120 seats, without Yisrael Beytenu.

The poll also tests a hypothetical left-wing party including former IDF chief of staff Gadi Eisenkot, Tel Aviv Mayor Ron Huldai and former foreign minister Tzipi Livni.

Such a slate would win 15 seats, bringing Likud down to 27 and Yesh Atid down to 14, it predicts.
