Poll: Majority of public believes Tartman should quit Knesset

Knesset Member Esterina Tartman (Israel Our Home) should quit her position in the Knesset, or so say 71 percent of respondents in an Israel Radio poll conducted Thursday.

Numerous media reports surfaced about the would-be Minister of Tourism since her candidacy was recently announced by Israel Our Home Chairman Avigdor Lieberman.

Yedioth Aharonot reported Tuesday that Tartman, who has claimed to hold a master's in business, has never actually received a diploma.

It was also reported that she also does not possess a BA from Bar Ilan University, as is posted on her resume on the Knesset's website.

The poll, conducted by Panorama Marketing, found that 75 percent of Israel Our Home members believe that Tartman should leave the Knesset.

Eighty percent of Labor, 81 percent of Kadima and 65 percent of Likud respondents agreed. Seventy-five percent of recent immigrants to Israel from the former Soviet Union also said that Tartman should leave the Knesset.
