When asked whether the Likud needs to replace its leader in order for a right-wing government to be formed, 32% of respondents answered that there should be no intervention in the Likud’s choosing its party leader. 26% thought that another candidate should be placed at the top of the right-wing bloc. 42% believe that the haredim should support Benjamin Netanyahu at all costs.

71% responded that the chairman of Yisrael Beytenu, Avigdor Liberman, should not be forgiven for his conduct and statements towards the haredi public.
