Its a fair way of allocating seats to votes. The drawback is parties usually don’t win a majority so coalition governments are the norm.

Tribute on Ch 13 to Ofra Haza who died twenty years ago this month. She will be sadly missed.

We should have exit poll projections the moment the polls are closed.

Last thing Israel needs is another hung Knesset. But Israelis have a way of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

Keeping fingers crossed that doing the same thing over again won’t lead to the same result.

Like the country needs a fourth election!

He has 60 seats according to the exit polls. He only needs to get one more for a majority.

Likud may pick up an extra seat or two in the hours ahead. Would give right wing bloc 62-63 seats.

Its very early. Likud usually does better in the raw popular vote which has yet to be counted.
