A Maariv poll that will be released in-depth in the newspaper’s weekend edition shows that Likud would earn 24 seats if elections were held today. The Labor/ The Movement list would follow with 23 seats. Things are not improving for Bayit Yehudi, which has dropped from being the third largest party to the fifth.

Likud: 24

Labor/The Movement: 23

Arab Bloc: 13

Yesh Atid: 12

Bayit Yehudi: 11

Kulanu: 7

Yahadut Hatorah: 7

Shas: 6

Meretz: 6

Yisrael Beitenu: 6

While the numbers vary to some degree in polls released this week, the trends are similar, that is to say Bayit Yehudi fails to climb back to 16 seats while Yesh Atid contains to climb.
