Voter turnout reaches 65.7% at 8 p.m., two hours before polls close in the large cities.

Polls already closed in small towns and villages at 7 p.m.

The figure marks a slight uptick of 2 percentage points from the same hour on Election Day in 2013.

After Bibi said he is no longer for the 2 state solution, I am sure that a number of Arab Israelis woke up and said they better vote for someone?. Pundits earlier today suggested that the vote might be as high as 80%. OUr country should do so well.

It’s being reported in Israel among the people that the percentage of Arab voters has tripled. .... and we already were aware American money is bringing the Arabs to the ballot box.....many being bused in....not to mention Obama’s groups called “Victory 15” in Israel for some time with the sole purpose of campaigning against Netanyahu.

I read that the turnout for Arab voters in the last election was about 55% so I really doubt that their vote has tripled this time round.

Everyone sharing the same rumors. Say Netanyahu and Herzog are neck in neck at 23/24 seats. More likely for @netanyahu to form government.
3:29 PM - 17 Mar 2015

19.44 Sheera Frankel, BuzzFeed’s Middle East Correspondent, reports on rumours that Mr Netanyahu and Mr Herzog are neck and neck.

We'll have to disagree as I do believe the turnout of Arabs is more...and not necessarily legit.

Bibi's Opponent Nerzog said....” I Trust the Obama Administration to Get a Good Deal” regarding Iran......that was music in the ears of the Arabs and Muslims. So they are certainly doing all is possible to get that guy in. They want Obama’s man in most any area where there's elections.....and we know our Gov. has been infiltrated mightily with Muslim. All ME leaders...including Israel.....knows the Muslim influence in Washington is great.

The fact it’s neck and neck leaves room for a lot that can be done to throw the election either direction....illegally. Not to mention the count itself.
