Blue and White closes in on Likud as 2.7 million votes tallied
Blue and White is closing the gap. With 2.7 million ballots counted, the Likud is still leading with 27.5%, but Benny Gantz’s party is on its tail with 26%.
With some 65% of the votes counted, Shas keeps its 6%, UTJ hovers just over 5%, and Yisrael Beytenu and Labor receive more than 4%, followed by Hadash-Ta’al with 3.9%, Kulanu with 3.6%, and the URWP and Meretz with 3.5%.
The remainder — including New Right, Zehut, Ra’am-Balad and Gesher — currently remain under the threshold.
