Likud Divisions and Voter Support
The article discusses the Likud Party's primary elections, which began today to select its candidates for the upcoming legislative elections in October. Polls indicate a decline in the party's popularity since Hamas's attack on Israel in October, with expectations of losing one-third of its seats. The party faces internal divisions between right-wing populist and extremist members and voters who prefer a shift toward the political center, which threatens Netanyahu’s chances of victory. Netanyahu is aiming to form a more moderate and balanced government after facing criticism and a drop in popularity, especially as more party members support centrist tendencies. However, divisions over issues such as military conscription and coalition frameworks remain critical in determining the election results.
