David Ben Zion, a senior member of Ofer Winter's list, is considering leaving the party and may announce this in the coming days, according to a report by Boaz Golan in the main edition. The move appears to be an act of taking responsibility against the backdrop of alarming internal polls and the storm over Yosef Haddad's remarks on the Palestinian state. In an internal poll received yesterday (Monday), Winter's list received only 2% – below the electoral threshold. Ben Zion is not the only one considering leaving: two other figures on the list are considering a similar option, with one expected to announce it soon. The storm over the Palestinian state, following Haddad's remarks, has caused discomfort within the list and highlighted disagreements over the political line. Another senior figure in the party supports the establishment of a Palestinian state, increasing internal pressure on the party seeking to establish its standing among national camp voters.
