Likud would win 29 seats in the Knesset if fresh elections were held, despite the corruption allegations surrounding its leader, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, a Channel 10 report says.
Although one seat fewer than its current tally, the poll result was the best yet for the party since police recommended last month that Netanyahu be indicted in a pair of corruption cases.
Following Likud in the poll is Yair Lapid’s Yesh Atid party, which would win 24 seats (11). The opposition Zionist Union would win 12 seats (24) and the Joint (Arab) List would win 12, one fewer than its current total.
Rounding out the poll, the left-wing Meretz would win 8 seats (5), Kulanu 7 (10), Yisrael Beytenu 7 (5), United Torah Judaism 6 (6) and Shas 5 (7).
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
