Internal polls reveal: The rival threatening to overtake Eisenkot on the left

Internal polls reveal that Gadi Eisenkot is weakening while Naftali Bennett's party is strengthening. The left-center bloc fears Eisenkot is becoming a 'new Benny Gantz,' but the 'Yashar' headquarters is preparing for a last-minute turnaround.

The article reveals that Gadi Eisenkot has weakened in internal polls in recent days, while Naftali Bennett's 'Yashar' party is strengthening. This is despite the 'big party' campaign Eisenkot launched. Senior sources in the left-center bloc express concern that Eisenkot is becoming a 'new Benny Gantz' — a figure lacking sufficient political experience who struggled to translate high poll mandates into political momentum. Another reason for the erosion is Likud's low result, standing at about 20 seats, which reduces the sense of urgency among voters. Bennett's headquarters fears that a public perception of Likud recovering toward 30 seats will lead to strategic voting for Eisenkot at Bennett's expense.
