Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud Party reached the top spot in a Panels Research poll taken for The Jerusalem Post and its Hebrew sister newspaper, Ma’ariv Sof Hashavua, on Thursday for the first time since Labor and Hatnua joined forces on December 10 to create the Zionist Union.For those doing the Right-Left count it's Right 59, Left 49 plus 12 seats for the Arabs (who have never been in a coalition).
The poll found that the Likud would win 25 seats, the Zionist Union 24, Bayit Yehudi 14, the Joint Arab List 12, Yesh Atid 11, United Torah Judaism and Koolanu eight, Shas seven, Meretz six, and Yisrael Beytenu five. The parties polled that did not cross the 3.25-percent electoral threshold were Green Leaf and both Yahad Ha’am Itanu and Otzma Yehudit.
Last week, the Zionist Union was ahead of the Likud by two seats, and two weeks ago the lead was three.
The percentage of respondents calling themselves “undecided” fell from 30% to 18%.
...
While all other polls taken since the election season began found that the issues Israelis vote on most are the gap between rich and poor and other socioeconomic matters, the new poll found that the security situation is now the voters’ top priority, 39% to 25%. Only 1 percent of respondents said the issue that would decide the vote most would be Israel’s foreign relations.
Thirty-five percent of respondents said their personal security situation had worsened in recent days, 60% said it had not changed, and 3 percent said it had improved.

As usual with team Obama, anything they touch goes to $hit.
Joining the Israelis...Canada and Europe.....
Ah I don’t think the Israelis care enough about Obama to bother wasting their spit..
more like they are kicking his anti-Semite butt...
Like I said days ago, I have family in Israel..they absolutely DESPISE Obama..have from day one..and BiBi has the election in the bag..he is adored in Israel, don’t let the American Press fool you, BiBi will win hands down no amount of rigging by Obama and his cronies will change that
I side with the leader of the free world as well, regardless of what Obama thinks of him.
Good for the Israelis. I hope they realize there are plenty of us over here who are on their side and would also like to spit on the Muzzie in the white house.
Leftists believe that unintended consequences can simply be planned, or mandated, away.
The picture caption -
God is your enemy, Barack.
A lot of us would like to spit in his face.
If Likud would release some interesting details about Obama’s political advisers and their funding right before election, it should get even more fun.
“I side with the leader of the free world as well, regardless of what Obama thinks of him.”
That is exactly how I see it.
Wouldn't it be fun if Netanyahu returned the favor and sent advisers to help the GOP in key states with the Jewish vote?
Good.
The best fun of all wold be if the Mosad wold release his real records, and why Moochelle was squeezed out of the Illinois Bar like the putrescent contents of a malignant pustule.
Friday is poll day in Israel, and the polls show that Israelis are siding with their Prime Minister, and spitting in the face of President Obama... Last week, the Zionist Union was ahead of the Likud by two seats, and two weeks ago the lead was three.I hadn't believed that result in the first place.
