Polls released in the past week place Likud at an average of 22-23 Knesset seats, consistent with the market's leading 20-24 outcome. The Oct. 27 election remains closely contested, with Netanyahu's bloc averaging around 53 seats and the main opposition bloc near 50-52, leaving both short of the 61 needed for a majority. Recent surveys show Likud holding or gaining modestly against Gadi Eisenkot's Yashar party, which leads in several polls, amid ongoing voter focus on security issues tied to the Oct. 7, 2023 attacks and related coalition performance. Roughly 30% of respondents remain undecided, contributing to volatility in final seat projections.
