Israeli Election Exit Poll: The eyes of countries around the world are on the general elections to be held in Israel. Meanwhile, after the end of voting for the elections in Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu's political future hangs in the balance. Early exit polls are showing that 77-year-old Netanyahu's 'Likud' political party will remain the largest party in the country's parliament, but will fall short of a majority. However, a new uncertainty has arisen in front of Israel, because it seems that none of the main rival factions will get the necessary seats to form the government.
According to polls by 'Kan 11' and 'Channel 13' news channels, each of Netanyahu's rival factions may get 52-52 seats. At the same time, in the poll of 'Channel 12', the group led by Gadi Eysenkot is lagging behind with 50 seats. Eysenkot's 'Yashar' party is believed to represent the main opposition to Netanyahu, but both groups are far away from the 61 seats required for a majority. This could lead to difficult negotiations to form a coalition and the possibility of a long political deadlock. Earlier, 5 elections have been held in Israel between 2019 and 2022 and now there is a fear of the same situation happening again.
Let us tell you here that Arab-led parties 'Ra'am' and 'Joint List' oppose Netanyahu. Earlier it was estimated that she could win a record 18 seats. Due to this, their role can be very important in the political future of Israel. The final results are expected to be announced along with the official results in the coming days.
This election is widely seen as a referendum on Netanyahu's leadership. This is in reference to the Hamas-led October 7 attacks in 2023 and the subsequent wars that shook the Middle East. A record 74 percent people voted in Israel on Tuesday. This is the highest turnout since the 1974 elections following the Yom Kippur War against Egypt and Syria. Throughout the day, Netanyahu urged his supporters to vote, calling it an “emergency” and “a matter of life and death.”
At the same time, while talking to journalists, Netanyahu supported the formation of a national right-wing government. He said that the right-wing faction has a large and decisive majority among Jewish voters and those who support the Jewish state. According to Israeli media, the Prime Minister opposed forming a government dependent on Arab parties, whom he described as 'anti-Zionist'.
