Turnout by 4 p.m. at 45.4%
45.4% of eligible voters cast their ballots by 4 p.m., slightly less than the 46.6% measured by 4 p.m. during the 2013 election.
Turnout among IDF soldiers is nearly 3% higher for this time of day.
Higher soldiers’ vote should help to offset the Arab turnout. Most of those will go to the Right.
Couple that with the fact the overall turnout is lower than expected, I’m feeling oddly content.
