The Central Elections Committee announced that the counting of "double envelope" votes has been completed. In the elections for the 26th Knesset, a total of 5,564,764 valid votes and 25,072 invalid votes were received.
The Likud, led by Benjamin Netanyahu, continues to lead and has risen to 27 seats, followed by Yashar, led by Gadi Eisenkot, with 21 seats.
Together, led by Naftali Bennett, has 12 seats, while the Joint List has 11 seats. The Democrats, led by Yair Golan, and Ra’am, led by Mansour Abbas, each have eight seats.
Yisrael Beytenu, Otzma Yehudit, United Torah Judaism and each have seven seats, while the Religious Zionism and Zehut list has six seats. The Shas party has joined them after falling to six seats.
The drop to six seats represents a historic low for Shas, which records its lowest result since the elections for the 12th Knesset in 1988, in which it received six seats, and since then the party has not dropped below the seven-seat threshold.

I believe Netanyahu outperformed his polls. Is that correct?
To: Eleutheria5
I think it’s only unexpected because the media lies.
So, what’s the path to 61? Someone in the opposition bloc peals off?
Or new election?
Or does the opposition ally with the arab/muslim parties?

The fake news here tried doing fake polls to depress voter turnout. I didn’t vote for him. I didn’t have to. Polls are what half-naked women dance around, for the same reason: to manipulate men.

Hopefully, Netanyahu can still conduct his war.

My guess is Bennet. We’ll see who he’ll team up with, and what the President gives his blessings to.

You might get some adjustments yet, as there is rumour of cheating.

Wars for survival are bipartisan. Whimpy little Labor PM Eshkol won an amazing victory in ‘67.

I understand that the so-called genocidal Israelis allow their Arab populations to form political parties and vote.
Yes?

There are not enough nicotine pouches in the world to comfort Tucker from this news.

The Arabs got 16. They are not in a bloc

That will be a seat or two.

He hasn’t won anything yet. 61 is a majority.
The other people are also mostly Jewish, too, though, so what does it matter to you, open and proud supporter of Nazi Germany and Hitler himself?
