A poll conducted on C14’s WhatsApp channel examined attitudes toward a range of parties and their potential support. The data, current as of Monday at 5:00 PM, shows a significant advantage for Religious Zionism among the options presented to participants.
When asked “Which small party has a chance to cross the threshold?”—where respondents could choose one or more options—Religious Zionism received 1,800 votes, far ahead of all other choices.
In second place was Yoseph Haddad’s “Brave Israel” with 215 votes, followed by Yaron Zelekha’s economic party with 180. Gilad Erdan’s “The Unity” received 87 votes, Yoaz Hendel and Hili Tropper’s “Zionist Home” got 81, Moti Leitner’s “The Haredi Public” received 68, and Blue and White got 37.
In another question, participants were asked: “Would you vote for one of these parties?” Here the picture was much tighter and actually quite surprising. Of 1,623 respondents, 769—or 47.4%—answered “no.” In contrast, 688 participants, 42.4%, answered “yes.” Another 166, representing 10.2%, answered “maybe.”
The takeaway: while nearly half of respondents currently rule out voting for any of the options presented, more than four in ten say they’re willing to vote for one of them, and another tenth don’t rule it out.
And who would they actually vote for?
In another question, participants were asked to specify which party they would actually vote for. 479 participants answered this question, and here Religious Zionism recorded a clear advantage. 304 of the respondents—63.5%—chose Religious Zionism. In second place was Zehut with 51 votes, or 10.6%, and in third place the economic party with 46 votes—9.6%.
Further down the list was Yoseph Haddad’s party with 21 votes (4.4%), Noam for Israel with 19 (4%), Zionist Home with 12 (2.5%), Ahi with 10 (2.1%), Gilad Erdan’s party with 8 (1.7%), The Haredi Public with 6 (1.3%), and Blue and White with just 2 votes (0.4%).
The results point to a significant gap between the leading party and the rest: whether participants are asked which party might cross the threshold or which they’d actually vote for, Religious Zionism stands out above its competitors.
Total votes in the poll stand at around 4,500. Since this is a WhatsApp poll, its reliability isn’t as high as a professional polling institute’s survey, but it does provide an indication from the field.
