Senior Likud official saw the channels' poll of polls - and was stunned: "I saw a completely different number"
Culture and Sports Minister Miki Zohar was interviewed on 103FM and responded to election polls, the slotting of Yaakov Bardugo, the departure of Tally Gotliv, the loss of the Israeli national team, and Netanyahu's UN speech. Zohar claims the polls do not reflect reality and that Likud is strengthening.
Culture and Sports Minister Miki Zohar was interviewed this morning on 103FM and addressed a range of political and current affairs topics. Zohar attacked the latest election polls, calling them "one big nonsense," and claimed that while public polls show Likud with 18 seats, the party's internal polls show 28 seats. He emphasized that "in polls we lose - in elections we win," and expressed concern about complacency among right-wing voters. Regarding the slotting of Yaakov Bardugo in Likud, Zohar said that "a lot of water has passed under the bridge" and that their disputes have calmed down. On Tally Gotliv's move to Otzma Yehudit, he commented: "Perhaps that is her natural place. She is a very right-wing hawk, and so is Ben Gvir." Zohar refrained from addressing future portfolio distribution and stressed the need to focus on winning the election. He harshly criticized the conduct of the Irish national team during the Nations League match, calling it "shameful and anti-Semitic conduct." Finally, he praised Prime Minister Netanyahu's UN speech and claimed that most countries remained in the hall and listened.
