Polls do not give a majority to either Netanyahu or the opposition
The upcoming Israeli elections on October 27 may lead to a stalemate, with neither Netanyahu's coalition nor the opposition likely to secure a majority. Recent polls indicate that the opposition bloc could win 54 seats, while Netanyahu's coalition might secure 50. The Arab parties are projected to gain 16 seats. Another poll suggests the opposition could win 56 seats, with Netanyahu's coalition again at 50. Starting Saturday, no further opinion polls can be published until exit polls are released on election night.
