The National Unity Party continues to grow stronger - mainly at the expense of stripping away votes from Yesh Atid and Likud - as it reaches a high of 28 seats in a new Maariv poll, conducted by the director of the Panels Politics Institute, Dr. Menachem Lazar and released on Friday.
The survey took place after the Independence Day torch ceremony on Mount Herzl in Jerusalem, where the head of National Unity Party, Benny Gantz, was present. However, Yesh Atid leader Yair Lapid chose to not attend the event. In the survey, Yesh Atid continues to weaken and stands at 17 mandates. Likud also weakens by 3 mandates, achieving a low of just 23 seats.
