Israeli ex-general Ofer Winter’s far-right Amcha Yisrael party again failed to cross the electoral threshold in a Channel 12 News poll published Monday evening, receiving the equivalent of 1.8 seats in the Knesset. The party also fell short of the threshold in the channel’s previous poll.<\/p>\n

The poll gives the bloc led by Gadi Eisenkot 54 seats, unchanged from the previous survey, and the bloc led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu 49 seats. The Arab parties would win a combined 13 seats, while the Reservists party led by Yoaz Hendel and Yaron Zelekha would receive four.<\/p>\n

The poll shows that parties opposed to Netanyahu would hold a combined 67 seats. However, some parties in Eisenkot’s bloc refuse to cooperate with the Arab parties<\/a>, leaving the bloc without a parliamentary majority. <\/p>\n
