This document is page 316 from a memoir (likely by Ehud Barak, titled 'My Country, My Life'), stamped with a House Oversight Committee code. It details the final days of the 1999 Israeli Prime Minister election campaign, specifically focusing on internal polling data and the strategic withdrawal of rival candidate Yitzhik Mordechai to support Barak against Benjamin Netanyahu ('Bibi'). The text highlights Barak's refusal to cut a political deal prior to the election to maintain a 'blank slate' for coalition building.
