Knesset Jeremy Readers,
Next Friday I will release the last Knesset Jeremy Weekly Average.
This means Knesset Jeremy Weekly Average #15 will be the last poll related post on Knesset Jeremy due to the Israeli law.
Israeli law: 18 January 2013 – after this date the publication of polls and predictions is prohibited.
Knesset Jeremy Weekly Average #15 will include the usual poll average of national polls taken from Jan 13-18.
I will also include my own prediction which will be based on polls, but will also include non-scientific hunches.
It will be interesting to see which one is closer to the final result.
I will be happy to comment on the thread up until election day based on my thoughts on Jan 18.
Election/Poll season brought many new readers to Knesset Jeremy and I hope to see you stick around after the 19th Knesset starts. Knesset Jeremy is the only place where you can get daily updates from the Knesset’s plenum sessions in English.
Thanks,
Jeremy Saltan
how about giving your readers a chance to guess the end results as well, and maybe a small prize to who gets closest to the final results??

That sounds like a good idea. What small prize do you have in mind?
How about an all-expenses paid trip to Israel? 🙂
Or a T-shirt of your favorite party (do they even do those in Israel?)
An American website I visit by tradition gives a free t-shirt with the site’s logo on it to whoever does best, which I think is a bit of a more reasonable prize than a trip overseas.
Just to be clear, I wasn’t serious about a trip to Israel! I’d love a T-shirt that said ‘Vote Am Shalem’ in Hebrew, though. Just for the surreal factor of wearing it in the Bahamas where I live.
Jeremy, coming from a curious Jewish guy in Europe who is relegated to the English(and often substandard) versions of the Israeli press, it is hard to overstate the necessity of your continual, unfailing data-driven posts.
So, let me just thank you in the most sincere way that I can. You won this reader around.
Thank you David!
Dear Mr Saltan,
kudos to you, for your excellent postings that provide useful info and data to non Hebrew speakers that are interested in Israeli politics
Best regards,

Thank you George. Please feel free to contact me if you ever want more information. I am a friend of a few embassies.
Thank you very much for everything that you do. I am so curious to see what the final numbers wind up being.
Thanks. I am too 🙂
