Final authorised opinion polls published yesterday just days ahead of the Israeli general elections showed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu heading for a fifth term in office, leading a right-wing coalition. The polls revealed the rival centrist Blue and White list led by former military chief Benny Gantz was running virtually neck-and-neck with Netanyahu’s Likud ahead of Tuesday’s vote. But while most polls saw Gantz’s list as scooping slightly more votes than Likud, neither party was predicted to win over 25 percent of seats in parliament. And the polls were unanimous in forecasting that Likud would be able to build a viable ruling coalition to beat off Gantz’s challenge. None gave a figure for undecided voters, although the number is reportedly high enough to swing the outcome.
