after disengagement

Aaron Lerner Date: 16 June 2005

The following is IMRA's translation of results of a telephone poll of a
random sample of 547 members of the Labor Party
carried out by Shvakim Panorama for Israel Radio's "Another Matter" program
on 15 June 2005 that is presented on the website of the radio station.
(http://bet.iba.org.il ).

The pollsters warns that the accuracy of the poll may be significantly
distorted by the fact that 20% of the list of Labor Party members did not
have accurate telephone numbers.

Who will you vote for to head the Labor Party?
Peres 27.31% Peretz 24.32% Ben Eliezer 18.61% Vilnay 15.23% Barak 14.53%

Who do you think has the least chance of being elected to head the Labor
Party in the primaries in two weeks?
Barak 55.6% Perez 13.3% Vilnay 11.3% Ben Eliezer 10.9% Peres 5.7%

Do you support or oppose dissolving the Knesset and advancing the elections
immediately after the completion of the disengagement from Gaza?
Support 37.4% Oppose 47.1% Don't know now 15.5%
