Poll: Israel Beiteinu tied with Labor
Israel Beiteinu, led by Avigdor Lieberman, is emerging as the party that would be most strengthened in the February 10 national elections, according to an up-to-date poll published Wednesday.
The Likud is still the leading party with 27 Knesset seats, losing one seat to Israel Beiteinu, according to the latest poll. Lieberman's party is slated to win 17 seats in the upcoming elections.
Kadima has narrowed the gap with the Likud and is expected to win 23 mandates. Labor, according to the Ma'ariv/Teleseker poll, remains steady with 17 slots.
The poll's results show little change from last week's poll, except Lieberman's gain at the expense of Likud.
Shas also remained steady at 10 Knesset seats, as well as Hatnua Hahadasha-Meretz (6), United Torah Judaism (5), and Arab parties Hadash and United Arab List (4 each).
The two religious-Zionist parties, National Union (NU) and Habayit Hayehudi, switched one seat between them, with NU gaining one seat and expected to win 4 mandates and Habayit Hayehudi expected to win 3 seats (compared to 4 in the last poll).
Meanwhile, Netanyahu has promised that he will topple Hamas, and Egypt is urging Hamas to negotiate now because the situation is likely to get much more difficult for them.Israel Beiteinu, led by Avigdor Lieberman, is emerging as the party that would be most strengthened in the February 10 national elections, according to an up-to-date poll published Wednesday.
