[89589] Mandate poll: Decline in the strength of a united party led by Bennett or Eisenkot
New political data indicate an erosion in the strength of center-right parties led by Bennett and Eisenkot, with a leakage of mandates to the Likud.
The mandate map is changing: Bennett and Eisenkot are losing strength
According to reports published on June 18, 2026, the political map is registering significant fluctuations in support for center-right parties. Amit Segal and Israel News | No Censorship - The Voice of News🇮🇱 point to a negative trend for a united party led by Naftali Bennett.
According to the data published by Amit Segal, a united party under Bennett's leadership "loses 6 mandates, two of them to Netanyahu." At the same time, if the party were to run under the leadership of Gadi Eisenkot, it is expected to lose two mandates, but the balance of the blocs remains without significant change.
Political commentator Amit Segal, known for publishing in-depth polls, emphasizes that the changes lead to a certain erosion in the strength of the united bloc. On the other hand, the channel Israel News | No Censorship presented identical data, while highlighting the leakage to the Likud party led by Netanyahu.
The findings point to high sensitivity among the voting public to the identity of whoever stands at the head of the united lists, where the question of who will lead the party may determine the size of the electoral loss. As of now, it is evident that voters are re-examining their support in light of the various options for the leadership of the bloc.
