A senior coalition official blames Ofer Winter for hurting the right-wing bloc: "If he hadn't insisted on running, the right would have won decisively."
Assessment
A coalition insider is publicly blaming Ofer Winter for a right-wing electoral shortfall, claiming his candidacy split the vote. That is a direct accusation of political damage, not a policy dispute. The stakes are internal coalition unity and the credibility of the right's leadership. Watch whether Winter responds, and whether other coalition figures echo or distance themselves from this criticism.
