Who Won Israel's Election? Here's What We Know So Far 🗳️🇮🇱

Who won Israel’s election? 🇮🇱 77.7% of Israelis came out to vote, nearly 5.7 million people, the largest voter turnout in Israel’s history. The initial results show three main blocs in the Israeli electorate. Benjamin Netanyahu’s bloc looks like it’s only going to get about 50 seats, down from 68 in this current government. That’s a major loss for the Netanyahu bloc. Gadi Eisenkot and the opposition bloc look like they won the most seats at around 53 mandates. And the Arab parties are at around 17, their highest level ever. These numbers aren’t final, but at this point, none of these blocs have a clear path to the 61 seats needed to form a government. Israeli President Isaac Herzog will get the official results in about a week. A few days later, he gives one candidate the mandate to form a government. If a government isn’t formed, Netanyahu will remain in power, and the country will possibly go back to another election to try and break the stalemate. Stay tuned and keep following.
