Recent Israeli polls show a highly fragmented Knesset race ahead of the October 27 vote, with Gadi Eisenkot’s Yashar party often edging or tying Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud in projected seats while neither Zionist bloc consistently reaches the 61-seat majority needed to form a government. Volatility in smaller parties near the electoral threshold, roughly 30 percent undecided voters, and bloc arithmetic that favors Netanyahu’s coalition partners in several surveys have kept trader odds nearly even. Proposed debates and ongoing coalition recruitment efforts underscore the narrow margins, with late shifts in turnout or threshold crossings among parties like B’Yachad or Otzma Yehudit likely to determine the final outcome.
