No name yet? I am predicting Ne’eman. It’s already their slogan
The polls always have a margin of error of several percent. Given that four seats is the threshold, it suggests that any party with less than six should really consider mergining with another party, since if you fall under the threshold your votes are not counted (wasted). But again, Israeli polling is always more problematic than American polling, so the poll is only good for telling general trends, and the general trends is to expect no radical change.
#2 its YACHAD. I think he would have done much better had he not just said that their will be no women in his party. Major blow to unity with Tekuma. Too bad. With the I think that Chetboun will also leave him as well because of this decision and probably join Tekuma.
