Polls Show Netanyahu Losing Voter Support

The Jerusalem Post released a poll Friday showing that a recently released report by State Comptroller Joseph Shapira about possible misuse of public funds at the residence of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem has hurt his standing among voters. The poll shows that if the elections were held tomorrow, Netanyahu’s rivals in the Zionist Union party would get 24 Knesset seats to 22 for Netanyahu’s Likud party. The poll also showed slight fluctuations in the level of support for various other parties, with three weeks to go until election day.
