Israeli election's final polls: the tables are turning on Netanyahu
Polls unanimously show center-left Zionist Union to be leading by four points; 72% of Israelis want a change
Four days to go and the tables might be turning on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Likud party as all the final polls unanimously show the center-left Zionist Union to be leading by four points over the Prime Minister's party.
According to the final poll of The Jerusalem Post and its Hebrew sister publication Maariv Sof Hashavua on Wednesday and Thursday the Zionist Union took the lead over the Likud, 25 Knesset seats to 21.
News site Ynet's last poll, published on Friday, predicted the Zionist Union would win on March 17 election with 26 seats while the Likud would win only 22 seats.
Daily Haaretz published its final poll on Thursday, showing the Zionist Union pulling 24 Knesset seats, while Likud getting only 21.
T|he polls also agree that the Joint (Arab) List would win 13 seats to become the third largest party on the 20th Knesset.
Although a win in the ballots does not necessarily mean the winning party and its leader would be tasked by the president with assembling the new government, according to the Jerusalem Post's poll the majority of the Israeli public wants to see a change in the regime, with seventy-two percent of respondents saying they wanted a change compared to 20% who did not.
A majority also said the country was going in the wrong direction on socioeconomic issues and international relations. Asked if they want Netanyahu to continue to head the government, 48% said no and 41% said yes.
