PHOTOS: Election Poll: Blue In White Leads But The Right-Wing Majority May Be Decisive


The latest elections poll, released on Sunday evening for News12 shows that while the Blue and White party continues to lead in the number of votes, the right-wing holds a majority, which means it is unlikely that Benny Gantz will be able to form a coalition government.

This will depend in a big way on the chareidi parties, which have announced they are loyal to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu.
