Voting in Israel's national election has ended, with exit polls showing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in a virtual tie with a center-left challenger.

Exit polls conducted by the country's three major TV stations late Tuesday gave mixed results, showing an extremely tight race between Netanyahu's Likud Party and opposition leader Isaac Herzog's Zionist Union.

Haaretz is the left wing media.

If they are calling for a unity government, that is a strong indication that the left lost in the election.

actually that’s not what Israeli news is reporting

When I heard that Christiane Amanpour said it was "too close to call", I interpreted that to mean that it was looking very good for Netanyahu.

How does Israel handle voter fraud? If Obama has anything to do with it, and he does, then there is voter fraud. No ifs, ands, or buts.

Bibi posts (translated from Hebrew): “Against all odds, a great victory for the Likud, a great victory for the national camp led by the Likud, a great victory for Israel.”

Bibi’s message on Facebook:

“Against all odds, a great victory for the Likud, a great victory for the national camp led by the Likud, a great victory for Israel.”

All the leftist western sources are showing “too close to call” or a “tie.” Idiots. A tie between Likud and ZU means the Right wins. Netanyahu is the most likely to be the next PM. That is not a tie.

I can’t believe all these racesa re decided on nearly 50/50 margins +/- 1%!!

It is statistically impossible in itself that so many elections can come down to a couple of votes-

But there is a good reason WHY. If you are going to commit election fraud, you manufacture (or suppress) just enough to win.

I KNOW Odumbass should have lost by AT LEAST 10 points last time around. That would have been a landslide of epic proportions. But Romney and The Stupid Party were too polite to go after election fraud

Election fraud exists. You want to know HOW I know? Because human beings are involved AND no one is stopping it.
