Haaretz daily newspaper: Communist Khenin
could force second round in Tel-Aviv elections
 
 
"Two public opinion polls carried out during the past month by the Maagar Mochot research group are predicting a huge victory for Huldai, who is running on the One Tel Aviv list, a partnership between the Labor Party and Kadima. However, an analysis of the findings yields a clear trend indicating, in recent weeks, that Huldai has been losing a considerable degree of support and that Khenin, running on the list Ir Lekulanu (A City For All), is gaining strength.

"The first of these surveys was prepared for Huldai's campaign headquarters at the end of September with a sampling of 515 city residents. The second survey was conducted for the weekly newspaper Zman Tel Aviv in mid-October with 543 respondents. In each of the surveys, the sampling error was 4.5 percent.
