Kadima wins elections, but will it form the next government? Kadima and its Chairwoman, Tzipi Livni, are the big winners of the 2009 general elections, according to a Rafi Smith exit poll commissioned by Ynet, with Likud finishing a disappointing 2nd.
Avigdor Lieberman's Yisrael Beiteinu delivered at crunch time to become Israel's third-largest party, while Ehud Barak's Labor party sustained a harsh blow. Exit polls by Israel's major television channels showed similar results

O My people! Their oppressors are children, and women rule over them.
O My people! Those who guide you lead you astray and confuse the direction of your paths. - Is. 3:12
Thanks for the correction. I don't have these players down.
Thanks for clearing up my confusion.
These are only the exit polls, right?
I don't know, but I don't see why not.
They could. A right wing coalition can easily be put together. If Livni gets the first chance, it'll be interesting.
This is why the Jews have so often fallen from the grace of God . When it is important , they do not listen to Him.
Something has happened in the last 100 yrs. They have gone from prosperous to utter victims , to brave and indomitable heroes and heroines , to clueless liberal doves courting extinction. The former unity has dissolved into a morass of liberal crappola here in the US ,and hesitant confusion at home in Israel . Maybe they no longer believe that Jehova is watching them? He is .....
G-d endorses political candidates?
According to Channel 1, the right-wing bloc won 63 Knesset seats and the left wing 57; Channel 2 predicted 64 for the right and 56 for the left; and Channel 10, like Channel 1, predicted 63 and 57.
The three exit polls, on average, found Shas to be the fifth largest party with 9-10 seats, followed by United Torah Judaism with 5, Meretz 4-5, Chadash 4, Jewish Home 3-4, National Union 3, Balad 2-3 and Ra'am Ta'al with 2-4 mandates.

It sounds like Israel may be wandering through the desert again.
“since the right-wing block has a clear lead over the center-left block to which Kadima belongs”
That was my instinctual guess when I saw the raw numbers, but I don’t know enough about the Parties to know who would work with who in a given situation.
Thanks for the info.
The Shas is not right-wing. They care about one thing and one alone: government subsidies.
Hopefully it won't be a glass desert...
Lately, with the likes of Pelosi, Hillary, and Obama in the forefront, that verse has been especially useful.
(Understandably, Gov. Palin's fans are less enthusiatic about it.)
On 5 August 2008, Mofaz officially entered the race to be leader of Kadima. ... On 17 September 2008, he lost the Kadima party election, losing to Tzipi Livni for the spot of the Prime Minister and leader of Kadima. Livni's narrow margin of 431 votes was 43.1% to Shaul Mofaz's 42.0%, a huge difference from the 10 to 12-point exit polls margins.
Netanyahu was not afraid to deal with the threats facing Israel. I fear others will just try to deny them.
What happened? Did they have a Saturday Night Live making fun of the more conservative candidate also?
Fans of Isa 3:12 are less enthusiastic about Palin.
Livni is no Golda Meir. And now Israel can have its first Lesbian president.
God endorses ‘some’ leaders , yes of course...
What a folly for Israel to go with Livni at a time like this .
Their Arab and persian enemies do not respect the leadership of women. Look at how they attacked Israel at the Yom Kippur
war . Who was PM then? Do they ever take seriously our American female Secretaries of State ? Albright? Rice ?
now Clinton? They do not...
Israel invites disaster . They were given a golden chance to stand up and be strong again , and they pulled their hand away in fear. shame shame
