Netanyahu bloc = 61 majority

Bottom line of exit-polls. Netanyahu with majority in all three, but it’s very close and the exit-polls last time exaggerated the Netanyahu bloc’s size. Other important conclusions: Labor, Meretz & Gantz all over-performed the polls. Lapid, Bennett and Sa’ar way down. Long night

Channel 12 has updated its exit-poll and the Netanyahu bloc has gone down by a seat. 60-60. Stalemate

And Channel 12 yet again adjusts its exit-poll and now the Netanyahu bloc has only 59 seats. Too early of course for the opposition to rejoice as it’s unclear how anyone can form an alternative coalition, but Netanyahu certainly doesn’t have one now.

(This won’t be over until they’ve counted the last absentee ballots in Pennsylvania and Georgia)

Worth pointing out. Even if the anti-Netanyahu parties can’t get together to transform 61 seats in to a functioning coalition, one thing they could do with 61 seats is elect a new Knesset speaker in 2 weeks and pass a law preventing an indicted politician becoming prime minister.

And now Channel 13 updating its exit-poll. Netanyahu bloc down there as well with 60-60. No Bibi majority.

And finally Channel 11 also updating its exit-poll and here as well, the Netanyahu bloc is down to 60. So now that’s stalemate in two exit-polls (11,13) and anti-Netanyahu bloc leading 61-59 in one (12)
