If you get a chance, could you explain the figures for undecided you posted a while ago? I didn’t understand what any of the numbers meant.
The first number is the % of voters who answer for that specific party who are still undecided and might vote for another party. The second number is the % for the main party they are considering.
Oh!
2 major disparities appear between the I24News Poll earlier this week and this Smith Poll.
Likud then 27 and here at 22, Shas then 4 and here at 8. It would be interesting to know the science behind these two polls.
If realised,
Bibi would be a hero on the first , but should really consider retiring and allowing new blood to lead Likud on the latter.
Deri should be taken out and shot at dawn on the first, but on the latter could say, reasonable and a base to start rebuilding Shas.
Every company has their own model. Geo always polls Likud high and Smith always polls Smith high. I had a post a while back before the campaign started on these issues. That is also why looking at one poll is not enough to judge a trend. Poll of Polls model is the best tool we have.
But the Shas-as-4 polls are weird. What I mean to say is, those polls seem to be polling an entirely different statistical population.
the battle of the next two weeks will be within the Camps -Lapid vs Kahlon for an undecided Center, Zionist Union seeking a few seats from Lapid… cannabilism throughout the right. Whereas the battles on the center left might enhance turnout (who best to replace the Bibi nightmare) the battles on the right might create despair and cynicism and stay at home voters.
Shabbat Shalom.
I truly can’t believe this election is this close, these so called center parties are all left wing parties with looking to establish palestianian state, how stupid can the israeli voter be!!! The whole middle east is burning and you think answer is giving land so they are closer to the phased plan…
Bibi is a true jewish hero fighting for his countries survival, if he loses this election we will all regret it, obama is an anti-semite who has gotten a free pass because he’s black, all his policies is pro muslem, you ppl are playing with fire keeping quite and not supporting bibi.
We are the same jews that kept quite during ww2 so not to offend america.
Hashem will protect us with bibi running the country.
Left will give away jerusalem because it has no meaning to them as they have zero religion.
Your reasoning is a bad as your spelling.
Figures that u would look at one wrong spelled word…I’m scared to know your views..
Oy, I would leave this one alone. He seems a bit touched.
That’s OK. Abbas will save us by refusing any possible deal.
