Teleseker poll adjusted for 18% - 24% who didn't say how would vote
Dr. Aaron Lerner Date: 27 October 2008

Dr Yehoshua of TNS (Teleseker) explained in a live interview broadcast on
Israel Radio's Hakol Diburim (It's All Talk) program that "in polls carried
outthree months before elections the undecided is around 15%-20% and 11%
refuse to reply altogether while 11% say that they will not vote."

Program host Yaron Dekel failed to get Yehoshua to reveal what the exact
figures for undecided, etc. were for the poll published today.

It is noteworthy that most political polls published in Israel do not
disclose this information.
